If the Water output from an Aluminum Scrap refinery cannot leave, Scrap production can stop and back up the upstream Alumina Solution process. Compare the per-minute Water flow in the current base recipes.
Check the Water output from the Aluminum Scrap refinery first, then compare it with the demand and actual operating rate of the process consuming recycled Water. Restore output space and stable consumption before restarting Scrap and upstream production.
Use Diagnose Aluminum Recycled-Water Backups to examine the information shown on this page: If the Water output from an Aluminum Scrap refinery cannot leave, Scrap production can stop and back up the upstream Alumina Solution process. Compare the per-minute Water flow in the current base recipes. Start with the question you need to answer, then read the description together with the applicable conditions. Similar names do not establish the same role or effect. Separate information about one entry from examples or related entries, and keep the scope of a collection distinct from a single selected record.
The comparison information displayed here includes Alumina Solution: − Water 180 m³/min, Aluminum Scrap: + Water 120 m³/min, and Water 120 / 180: 66.67%. Check the label, unit, and conditions attached to each value before combining it with other information. A quantity, limit, requirement, and result describe different things. Compare like with like; do not add unrelated values or treat an unavailable value as zero. A listed value alone does not establish every condition needed in your own game.
Use the page in stages: identify the relevant entry or constraint, review its details, and then inspect the related information needed for your next decision. When a control changes the selection, check the active conditions and resulting display again. Keep a plan separate from actions actually completed in the game. Before using a result, compare it with your current equipment, available resources, and progress; the page does not automatically confirm that personal state.
Examples of linked entries to inspect are Alumina Solution − Water 180 m³/min, Aluminum Scrap + Water 120 m³/min, Water, Alumina Solution, Aluminum Scrap, and Aluminum Ingot. Follow the relationship indicated by the page rather than assuming that every link means the same thing. Return to the original entry after checking conditions on a linked page. An unavailable relationship remains unknown; it is not evidence that no other relationship or prerequisite exists.
