Before you go
- Refinery and Aluminum Scrap recipe unlocked
- 4 m³ Alumina Solution and 2 Coal per batch
Farming steps
- Place a Refinery where the liquid and solid inputs and both outputs can be connected.
- Select the Aluminum Scrap recipe.
- Connect a fluid line carrying Alumina Solution to the Refinery.
- Supply Coal on a belt to the solid input.
- Route the Scrap output toward a Foundry for Aluminum Ingots or to storage.
- Connect the Water output to a sink, tank, or process that can use it.
- Start production and check the input buffers and Water route if the Refinery pauses.
- At 100% clock speed, the recipe outputs 360 Aluminum Scrap and 120 m³ Water per minute.
- The optional Electrode Aluminum Scrap recipe requires its alternate unlock and uses different inputs and outputs.
Repeat, collect and use
Maintain the Alumina Solution and Coal supplies, keep Water flowing out, and send Scrap where Aluminum Ingots are made.
Common mistakes
- Supplying Alumina Solution but forgetting Coal; both ingredients are required.
- Leaving the Water output without capacity, causing the Refinery to back up.
When to stop or switch
Stop the Refinery when your Scrap buffer is full, downstream demand is met, or the Water route cannot accept more.
