REFINERY METHODS
9 OPTIONSEach method trades yield against time and cost. Recovered SCU = raw input × method yield (station bonus already applied). Pick by what you're optimizing for — bulk yield, fast turnaround, or low fee.
- Dinyx SolventationSLOWESTCHEAPESTHighest yield in the verse. Long queue, low fee — the patient miner's pick.0.51 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 38%Ferron ExchangeMEDIUMMEDIUMBalanced default. Solid yield without the multi-hour wait.0.44 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 38%Pyrometric ChromalysisMEDIUMMEDIUMTwin of Ferron Exchange. Similar profile, different chemistry.0.44 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 36%ElectrostarolysisMEDIUMMEDIUMSlightly under Ferron, occasionally cheaper on niche ores.0.42 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 32%Thermonatic CastingFASTESTMEDIUMFastest output for the yield. Pick this on a tight turnaround.0.38 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 30%Gaskin ProcessFASTPRICEYQuick and pricey. Worth it when shop docks are about to close.0.36 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 30%Kazen MethodMEDIUMPRICEYExpensive without the speed payoff — generally outclassed.0.36 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
- 27%Cormack ProcessFASTESTCHEAPESTCheap and fast — accept the yield hit when volume matters more.0.33 SCUper 1 SCU Titanium
