Toxifier generator
This electrical generator very slowly pollutes the terrain in a radius around it while producing energy. If all terrain in the radius is polluted, the generator will shut down.

The toxifier generator is a power generator added by the Biotech DLC.
Acquisition
Toxifier generators can be constructed once the Toxifier generator research project has been completed. They require 125 Steel, 3 Components, 8,000 ticks (2.22 mins) of work, and a Construction skill of 4.
Once constructed, a Toxifier generator cannot be moved, it can only be deconstructed.
Summary
Each generator produces 1400W and pollutes 6 tiles every 3 days, for an average of 2 tiles a day. The pollution can spread, up to a 27-tile radius from the bottom-left tile. Once all cells in range are polluted, the generator ceases to work until there are unpolluted tiles again.
Analysis
With a pollution pump, a toxifier generator creates 1 wastepack every 3 days, or 20 wastepacks (4 full stacks) per year. Even multiple generators can be run for a few years - before you switch to cleaner energy sources - where the waste can be managed quite easily.

The toxifier generator's key drawback is its pollution, however, with sufficient infrastructure it can provide net positive power without polluting the map.
Each generator produces an average of 2 tiles of pollution per day. A pollution pump cleans 4 tiles of pollution per day, where 6 tiles = 1 toxic wastepack. The wastepack atomizer destroys 2 wastepacks a day, or 12 pollution tiles. Pumps consume -200W of power, and atomizers consume -400W. A ratio of 6 toxifier generators : 3 pollution pumps : 1 atomizer is fully clean and has a net power of 7400 W.
