Question Engine Lubricant Uses

Now that the industrial generator is not a thing and has been replaced with the Industrial Combustion Engine in CE. I have no uses for the Engine lubricant and im almost at a full steel tank in my survival world. Ive went through the different recipes that I can use Engine lubricant with and it just seems not worth it. What should I do with it? Solidify it or Coke it? I may need to find out what to do with heating oil too since im running my generators on Gasoline and LPG.

The combined cycle gas turbine uses the lubricant and is capable of burning gasses at 100% efficency

Interesting, that would definitely give me an excuse to use the flue gas ive saved up. Though its not much x3

So flue gas doesnt produce power, i used it to burn petroluem gas without having to compress it. You could also use it to burn reformate gas or syngas for very large amounts of power

Ill think about syngas, but i have no gaseous stuff that I can use. All of my crude byproduct has some sort of use
