How much CarbonDioxide from CRP should make 1 LqdCO2, and how much LqdCO2 + Water should make 1 Methane?


Recommended Posts

I am setting up a system to make methane with ISRU. As I understand it, making methane on mars needs CO2 + water. The CRP includes a LqdMethane resource, CO2 resource, LqdCO2, and water. The CO2 resource has extremely low density, but has pre-configured resource distributions.

My intended resource chain is: gathered CO2 -> LqdCO2, LqdCO2 + Water -> Methane.  The question is, what should be the ratio of CO2 to LqdCO2 & LqdCO2 + Water to Methane. Anyone have some ideas?

Ideally based off of the density values in CRP & real life science, but approximations are fine. I'm also adding custom tankage, so I need some help: If a tank holds 3750 methane, how much of the other resources should the same tank hold?
