Deuterium
Material, Fuel
A stable isotope of hydrogen. Rarely exists under natural conditions. Most of them come from the reprocessing of hydrogen and the collection from the Gas Giant.

Player Tips & Tricks

  • Using Fractionators to produce Deuterium is roughly five times more energy efficient (using Mk.III Conveyor Belts) than Particule Colliders. It takes more space to setup, but works in a simple loop (with a buffer liquid storage slowly refilled with Hydrogen).
