Enrichment Plant: Difference between revisions

Enrichment Plant

Utilizes a large set of centrifuges to concentrate uranium-235 isotope out of natural Uranium (a process called isotope separation). The resulting product is fissile Uranium Pellets, ready to undergo a chain reaction in a Nuclear Reactor. The pellets are not radioactive yet and can be handled manually.

Construction	150 + 80
Workers	12
Electricity	200 KW
Maintenance	4.0 / 60
Footprint	14x8
Required Research	Nuclear Reactor
Designation	Power Production

The Enrichment Plant is the sole machine which can produce Uranium Pellets for the creation of Uranium Rods and, eventually, nuclear power. It combines Yellowcake from a Settling Tank with Hydrogen from either an Electrolyzer or Hydrogen Reformer. It takes 2 Enrichment Plants operating at a 90% duty cycle to feed one Nuclear Reactor continuously.
