This guide will show how can you refine everything. You don't need to farm anymore.
Refining – The Magic Of Alchemy
Intro
In No Man's Sky you can do what no alchemist has succeeded to do – create something out of nothing. There are refining multiplication formulas almost for every metal, mineral or a plant. Get creative, feel the magic of Alchemy like Paracelsus.
Frequently Used Resource Multiplying Progressions
Ferrite Dust
- Rusted Metal x1 = Ferrite Dust x2
- Pure Ferrite x1 + Oxygen x1 = Rusted Metal x2
- Magnetised Ferrite x1 = Pure Ferrite x2 (Fast unit output)
- Ferrite Dust x1 + Indium x1 = Magnetised Ferrite x4
- Indium x1 + Chromatic Metal x1 = Indium x2
- Indium x1 = Chromatic Metal x2
Carbon
- Condensed Carbon x1 + Oxygen x2 = Condensed Carbon x6
- Condensed Carbon x1 = Carbon x2
Oxygen
- Star Bulb x1 + Kelp Sack x1 + Condensed Carbon x1 = Oxygen x10
- Paraffinium x1 + Nitrogen x1 = Star Bulb x1
- Salt x1 + Nitrogen x1 = Kelp Sac x1
- Oxygen x40 + Uranium x40 + Tritium x50 = Superoxide Crystal x1 = Oxygen x150
Sodium
- Magnetised Ferrite x1 + Nitrogen x1 = Sodium Nitrate x3
- Sodium Nitrate x1 + Nitrogen x1 / Oxygen x1 = Sodium Nitrate x2
- Sodium Nitrate x1 = Sodium x2
Cobalt
- Ionised Cobalt x1 + Oxygen x2 = Ionised Cobalt x6
- Ionised Cobalt x1 = Cobalt x2
Di-hydrogen
- Tritium x5 = Di-hydrogen x1
- Di-hydrojen x30 = Di-hydrojen Jelly x1 = Di-hydrojen x50 (very fast unit output)
Note: You can also buy Di-hydrojen Jelly at Trading Terminals.
Phosphorus
- Dioxite x2 + Ferrite Dust x1 = Phosphorus x1
- Solanium x2 + Salt x1 = Phosphorus x1
- Phosphorus x1 + Sulphurine x1 = Solanium x1
- Phosphorus x1 + Solanium x1 = Solanium x2
Dioxite
- Condensed Carbon x1 + Sodium Nitrate x1 = Dioxite x2
- Ammonia x2 + Ferrite Dust x1 = Dioxite x1
- Ferrite Dust x1 + Paraffinium x2 = Ammonia x1
Chlorine
- Chlorine x1 + Oxygen x2 = Chlorine x6
- Salt x2 + Oxygen x2 = Chlorine x5
- Chlorine x1 = Salt x2
- Salt x40 + Chlorine x40 +Tritium x50 = Chloride Lattice x1 = Chlorine x150
Pyrite
- Gold x1 + Oxygen x1 = Pyrite x2
- Uranium x2 + Ferrite Dust x1 = Pyrite x1
Uranium
- Radon x1 + Magnetised Ferrite x1 = Uranium x3
- Sulphurine x1 + Chromatic Metal x1 / Oxygen x1 = Radon x1
- Nitrogen x1 + Chromatic Metal x1 / Oxygen x1 = Sulphurine x1
Glass
- Frost Crystal x40 = Glass x1
- (Crafting Glass from Frost Crystal x40 is much faster than refining)
- Frost Crystal x1 + Dioxite x1 = Frost Crystal x2
- Dioxite x1 + Radon x1 = Frost Crystal x1
Plants
- Paraffinium x1 + Nitrogen x1 = Star Bulb x1
- Paraffinium x1 + Star Bulb x1 = Star Bulb x2
- Cobalt x1 + Nitrogen x1 = Marrow Bulb x1
- Gamma Root x1 + Uranium x1 = Gamma Root x2
- Cactus Flesh x1 + Pyrite x1 = Cactus Flesh x2
- Fungal Mould x1 + Ammonia x1 = Fungal Mould x2
- Salt x1 + Nitrogen x1 = Kelp Sac x1
- Frost Crystal x1 + Dioxite x1 = Frost Crystal x2
- Dioxite x1 + Radon x1 = Frost Crystal x1
- Faecium x1 + Oxygen x1 = Faecium x3
- Mordite x1 + Condensed Carbon x1 = Faecium x4
- Faecium x3 = Mordite x2
- Di-hydrojen x1 + Condensed Carbon x1 = Mordite x1
Refining Multiplier Curiosities
Carbon Crystal
- Carbon x50 + Condensed Carbon x50 = Carbon Crystal x1 = Condensed Carbon x150
Superoxide Crystal
- Oxygen x40 + Tritium x50 + Uranium x40 = Superoxide Crystal x1 = Oxygen x150
Destabilised Sodium
- Sodium x40 + Sodium Nitrate x40 + Tritium x50 = Destabilised Sodium x1 = Sodium Nitrate x150
Rare Metal Element
- Magnetised Ferrite x25 + Oxygen x50 = Rare Metal Element x1 = Pure Ferrite x150
TetraCobalt
- Cobalt x50 + Ionised Cobalt x50 = TetraCobalt x1 = Ionised Cobalt x150
Chloride Lattice
- Salt x40 + Chlorine x40 +Tritium x50 = Chloride Lattice x1 = Chlorine x150
Di-hydrojen Jelly
- Di-hydrojen x30 = Di-hydrojen Jelly x1 = Di-hydrojen x50
- (You can also buy Di-hydrojen Jelly at Trading Terminals. Refining is very fast.)
