Ficsonium Fuel Rods are a very late-game fuel produced by reprocessing  Plutonium Waste. They emit the most radiation per item out of any radioactive item in the game.

Burning Fisconium Fuel Rods in  Nuclear Power Plants produces no waste.

Alternatively, they can be used as vehicle fuel.

Usage

Fuel

Ficsonium Fuel Rods can be burned in a Nuclear Power Plant at a rate of 1/min, producing no byproduct.

Vehicle Fuel

Ficsonium Fuel rods can be loaded into the fuel tank of wheeled vehicles either manually by the Pioneer or automatically through a Truck Station. Caution should be used as the Ficsonium Fuel Rods will still generate intense radiation in a Truck Station or while in a fuel tank waiting to be consumed. Once consumed by the vehicle, the radiation will cease.

AWESOME Sink

 Ficsonium Fuel Rod cannot be sunk into the AWESOME Sink and will clog the input.

Tips

• Given the extremely long burn time and intense radiation it is not recommend to automatically refuel vehicles with Ficsonium Fuel Rods. Automatic refueling will create intense radiation from the Ficsonium Fuel Rods stored in the Truck Station performing the refueling, and it will create a moving intense radiation area from the vehicle loaded with fuel that could take hours, days, or weeks to consume.
