Not sure when or why pollution was removed, but I put it back in the new update (1.8.0). By default the mk1 quarry and extractor both produce 10/m, mk2 produces 20/m, and mk3 produces 30/m. There's a new startup setting to increase/decrease the amount of pollution as desired. https://i.imgur.com/Cz2M0eb.png
Default is 1 meaning 100%.
