The Yin and Yang of Water and Sewage (Pooh Disaster)

[ViraCorp]

So, I hate how the sewage goes all out and pollutes in the rivers or ocean. I made my own inland dumping spot for sewage that is all contained in the output lake.

Then just for fun, I split it and had a side for fresh water, and for even more fun, did it in the shape of Yin and Yang.

EDIT: The intake is a bit funky, I could not get it nice and round and still have the water pump fit onto it.

Thank you, it was working well, unfortunately, I must’ve missed completely leveling out the ground somewhere in between, because the good side got flooded by the sewage side. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

UPDATE: After the sewage seeped into the other side, I removed the middle roads, and the fresh water intake. So I ended up with a big circular pool of sludge.

Now here is where it gets interesting.

I thought the water would stay at the same level based on the odd ways I see water working in this game. This is NOT the case.

The pooh water continued to rise until it spilled it's banks.

I kept raising the land around the cesspool, and eventually the pooh was contained.

It's pretty deep now, and continues to rise. The pumps are now completely submerged in the filth yet they are still chugging away!

Not at all what I intended, but makes for an interesting geography. I think I am going to continue to let it fill and see if I can perhaps add some hydro-electric dams at the top.

LOL. Will do! Got my dam built. Never did damns before, so not really familiar. I was hoping I could have one big circular dam at the top, but can't seem to build it that way.

I did two across the middle, and the excrement is now at a higher level in the middle.

Can't wait to see what happens when it gets deep enough. This is really a disaster just waiting to happen!! Oh the poohmanity of it all!!

How can you not love a Pooh Dam??!!!

So, the bowl finally filled so to speak.

Here we are generating a meager 82 KW of power from the filth.

Time for the flush.....

The water was just trickling, so I pulled out the plunger and and gave the edge a squish.

And we immediately see a nice flow begin.

And in that rush to flush, we are able to generate a whopping 2.21 MW of power...

Unfortunately it is not sustainable, at least not till we get some high fiber mods.

After playing with the height in the middle and opening it up, it sustains about 90 KW

How does the middle fill after it drains out?

The original sewage outputs are still down there, they’ve literally got covered with water, but they’re still pumping out sewage, and now that I put the dam there, it’s only raising the water level in between the two pieces of dam
