     - Handle Ore Sorting Facility 5 changes #327
       - Stop creating recipe, item, and entity in Sea Block
       - Added migration of removed Sea Block item and entity to new Angel's item and entity
+	-  Simplified the early game transition from Mineral water to Mineral sludge #331 
+	  - Sulfuric acid needed to create mineral slurry and crystal slurry reduced to 3 (was 15)
+	  - Moved Sulfuric waste water treatment back to Water Treament 2 tech. 
+	  - Sulfuric waste water generated by Charcoal filtration of Slag slurry and Crystal slurry reduced to 10 (was 40)
+	  - Removed Sulfuric waste water as output from Ceramic filtration of Slag and Crystal slurry (was 20)
