The Refinery Deck is a space station deck available at various space stations. At a refinery deck, raw minerals can be refined to increase the value of the resource with each station offering different amount of profit margins for a certain mineral. It is important to choose a good "method" of refining to maximize profits and reduce downtime.
Space station with refinery decks
Requires updating with more specific locations. These stations are in the small asteroid clusters in the vicinity of the planets.
Refinement processing
Multiple different refinement methods are available to refine minerals. Duration, cost and yield is depending on the process type and the material specialization of the refinery deck. A work order is assigned to the entire cargo of vehicle, and work orders can not be split into multiple. Minerals not included in the work order are permanently lost.
Method | Speed | Cost | Yield |
---|---|---|---|
Cormack Method | High | Moderate | Low |
Dinyx Solvention | Very low | Low | High |
Electrostarolysis | Moderate | Moderate | Moderate |
Ferron Exchange | Low | Moderate | High |
Gaskin Process | High | High | Moderate |
Kazen Winnowing | Moderate | Low | Low |
Pyrometric Chromalysis | Low | High | High |
Thermonatic Deposition | Low | Low | Moderate |
XCR Reaction | High | High | Low |
After a work order has completed, it has to be loaded in one or more ships and sold at a trading console.
