{{Stationpedia|Polluted water is a waste product from the use of [[Water]] in certain devices. It will freeze into [[Ice (Polluted Water)]] but boil into [[Water|Steam]].
A [[Water Purifier]] can be used to convert it back to [[Water]]}}

== Usage ==
Polluted Water is a byproduct of various machines such as when the player uses a [[shower]] as a means to raise a player's [[hygiene]]. Polluted water needs to be cleaned before it can be usable, either through a 
[[Water Purifier|water purifier]] or by boiling the liquid into [[Water|Steam]].

Polluted Water has a specific heat of 64 J/K making it a great alternative to [[water]] for [[Coolant|cooling]]. 

== Sources ==
Polluted water can be obtained by using a [[Shower]] or [[Toilet]].

You can obtain polluted water by smelting [[Ice (Polluted Water)]] using a [[Furnace]] or crushing [[Ice (Polluted Water)]] in an [[Ice Crusher]]. Filtering is no longer required as the [[Furnace]] and [[Ice Crusher]] now contain separate outputs for liquids and gases.<br> <br>

== History ==
Polluted water was added as part of the "Shelter in Space" update. It was added as a potential byproduct for raising the [[hygiene]] stat.
