Uses lava in the power generate game loop for vulcanus.

When tungsten carbide is unlocked, a special heat tower which consumes lava to generate heat becomes available. The heat generated from this tower is used with heat exchangers and steam turbines in the normal way.

The "acid neutralisation" recipe is heavily nerfed to generate steam that is only 40C; too low pressure for power generation use. That low energy steam is condensed into water, which is fed into a heat exchanger, energizing the steam for power production.

The purpose of this mod is to increase the number of ways lava is used on vulcanus. Currently, lava is only used for metal production, very cool. Now the "heat" attributes of lava is also used.
