Gas Centrifuge

From HBM's Nuclear Tech Wiki

The gas centrifuge.

The Gas Centrifuge is a machine that is able to centrifuge certain gases and fluids, such as uranium and plutonium hexafluoride, or poisonous mud. It is used for obtaining radioactive isotopes such as uranium-235 or plutonium-238.

Crafting

Gas centrifuges can be crafted in an assembly machine with the following recipe:

Usage

The gas centrifuge's GUI.

Unlike the centrifuge, fluids must be piped into the gas centrifuge, but also, most recipes require multiple gas centrifuges next to each other in order to work, due to intermediate products being unable to be transported with pipes.

How gas centrifuges are placed next to each other. Notice the "connector" port in front of each centrifuge.

Requires 4 Gas Centrifuges & Overclocking Upgrade

As seen above, a gas centrifuge overclocking upgrade needs to be placed on the fourth centrifuge to allow for total isotopic separation of uranium hexafluoride.
