How to craft Plutonium Pellet
Quantities below are per complete recipe batch. Rates are for one machine at 100% clock. Keep every output moving so byproducts do not block production.

Use a Particle Accelerator configured for Plutonium Pellets. Supply Non-Fissile Uranium and Uranium Waste from their production chains.
A Particle Accelerator converts Non-Fissile Uranium and Uranium Waste into Plutonium Pellets. Each standard batch uses 100 Non-Fissile Uranium and 25 Uranium Waste to produce 30 Pellets. The recipe needs both input streams and the Accelerator's variable power supply, which ranges from 250 to 750 MW. Prepare both ingredients before starting production, then route Pellets to an Assembler making Encased Plutonium Cells if that is your intended use. This is a radioactive production chain: plan input handling and downstream capacity before scaling it up. Pellets are manufactured rather than collected at a resource node.

How to craft
Before you craft
Particle Accelerator configured for Plutonium Pellets
100 Non-Fissile Uranium and 25 Uranium Waste per batch
Power capacity for variable consumption from 250 to 750 MW
Set up steady supplies of Non-Fissile Uranium and Uranium Waste.
Configure the Particle Accelerator for Plutonium Pellets.
Deliver 100 Non-Fissile Uranium and 25 Uranium Waste for each batch.
Provide power that can support the Accelerator's variable draw.
Collect the 30 Plutonium Pellets produced per batch.
Route Pellets to an Assembler for Encased Plutonium Cells if needed.
Crafting tips
At 100% clock, the recipe consumes 100 Non-Fissile Uranium and 25 Uranium Waste per minute and produces 30 Pellets per minute.
Non-Fissile Uranium is made in a Blender and also produces Water.
Check both input rates before expanding the production line.
Repeat, collect and use
Keep the Accelerator running while both inputs, available power, and downstream capacity support production.
Common mistakes
Planning for 100 Uranium Waste per minute; the listed recipe uses 25 per batch and per minute at 100% clock.
Assuming the Accelerator always draws 500 MW instead of allowing for its 250–750 MW range.
When to stop or switch
Stop or throttle production if either input runs short, power cannot support operation, or Pellet storage and downstream capacity fill.
