Recipes for producing stuff in Satisfactory (matter transmutation)

Products	Input material	SAM usage	Power usage (MW)	Recipes
Bauxite × 240 (products per input: 0.4)	Coal × 600 (per product: 2.5)	SAM × 70 (per product: 0.291667)		2.5×(C→RawQ), 2.5×(RawQ→Cat), 2×(Cat→Baux)

This means that for every 600/min of Coal(C) and 70/min of SAM, 240/min of bauxite(Baux) is produced, through an intermediate conversion chain through Raw Quartz (RawQ) and Caterium (Cat).

In this recipe, you have three types of converters:

• A converter making Raw Quartz (RawQ) from Coal (C), i.e. Raw Quartz (Coal) running at 250 % clock speed.
• A converter making Caterium (Cat) from Raw Quartz (RawQ) i.e. Caterium (Quartz) running at 250 % clock speed.
• A converter making Bauxite (Baux) from Caterium (Cat), i.e. Bauxite (Caterium) running at 200 % clock speed.

Instead of one machine at 200 %, you can of course have e.g. four identical machines at 50 % each, to have the combined clock speed of 200 %.

You can also freely scale the recipe, for example divide everything by 2.5 to get 1×(C→RawQ), 1×(RawQ→Cat), 0.8×(Cat→Baux). Of course, the inputs and products will be likewise scaled then (28 SAM, 240 inputs, 96 outputs).

Products	Input material	SAM usage	Power usage (MW)	Recipes
Sulfur × 200	none	SAM × 191.667 (per product: 0.958333)	5956.81 (per product: 29.7841)	2.5×(C→S)🏮, 12.5×(S→Lime), 4.16667×(Lime→C)

This means that for every 191.667/min of SAM, 200/min of Sulfur (S) is produced without any other ingredients. In installation, you have three types of converters:

• A converter making Sulfur (S) from Coal (C), i.e. Sulfur (Coal), running at 250 % clock speed, with one Somersloop¹.
• A number of converters making Limestone (Lime) from Sulfur (S), i.e. Limestone (Sulfur), running at a combined clock speed 1250 %. For example, ten converters at 125 % each, or five at 250 % each, or twenty-five at 50 % each.
• A number of converters making Coal (C) from Limestone (Lime), i.e. Coal (Limestone), running at a combined clock speed 416.667 %.

Because the recipe does not call for inputs, you kickstart the chain by manually placing enough input material in one of the converters. The amount that is enough depends on your exact design (the more machines you split to, the more you need to kickstart them), but in this example either 12.5×20=250 Sulfur, 4.16667×240=1000 Limestone or 2.5×200 = 500 Coal would work regardless of the splits.

The output is extracted by placing a Smart Splitter at the output of the desired material, with Any going back to the loop and Overflow going to products.

MW refers to power usage in megawatts. The power usage for non-slooped sets of converters is calculated by assuming that no machine is overclocked over 100%. (E.g. 1250 % is achieved by running 13 converters, each at 96.1538467 %). The exact amount of power is ∑ᵢ 𝘗ᵢ 𝘯ᵢ (1 + 𝘴ᵢ/2)² (𝘤ᵢ / 𝘯ᵢ)ᵏ, where 𝘗ᵢ = 250 = average power of converters, 𝘴ᵢ is the number of Somersloops, 𝘤ᵢ is the target clock level, 𝘯ᵢ is the number of machines, and 𝘬 = log₂(2.5). With 𝘗 = (250, 250, 250), 𝘴 = (1, 0, 0), 𝘤 = (5/2, 25/2, 25/6), and 𝘯 = (1, 13, 5), this evaluates to 5956.81 MW, the number given in the example recipe.

¹) Exercise to reader: Why not 25 converters each running at 10%, each with one Somersloop?

There is only one recipe that produces Reanimated SAM: It uses the Constructor, and at 100 %, it produces 30/min Reanimated SAM for every 120/min SAM. This means:

SAM mining rate	Reanimated SAM (power-efficient)	Max production
75/min	18.75/min (1 Constructor @ 62.5 %)	37.5/min (1 Constructor @ 62.5 %, 1×Somersloop)
120/min	30/min (1 Constructor @ 100 %)	60/min (1 Constructor @ 100 %, 1×Somersloop)
150/min	37.5/min (2 Constructors @ 62.5 %)	75/min (1 Constructor @ 125 % – 1 Power Shard, 1×Somersloop)
240/min	60/min (2 Constructors @ 100 %)	120/min (1 Constructor @ 200 % – 1 Power Shard, 1×Somersloop)
300/min	75/min (3 Constructors @ 83.333 %)	150/min (1 Constructor @ 250 % – 3 Power Shards, 1×Somersloop)
480/min	120/min (4 Constructors @ 100 %)	240/min (2 Constructors @ 200 % – 4 Power Shards, 2×Somersloop)
600/min	150/min (5 Constructors @ 100 %)	300/min (2 Constructors @ 250 % – 6 Power Shards, 2×Somersloop)
1200/min	300/min (10 Constructors @ 100 %)	600/min (4 Constructors @ 250 % – 12 Power Shards, 4×Somersloop)
