Setting Up an Efficient Copper Recycling System

Automated Recycling Setup

For large-scale copper recycling, you can create a simple system using furnaces and hoppers.

Basic System Layout

1. Place multiple furnaces in a row or grid

2. Position hoppers above each furnace to feed copper blocks automatically

3. Connect hoppers to a chest where you store copper blocks

4. Place output hoppers below furnaces to collect ingots into another chest

5. Add fuel hoppers to the side of each furnace

Operating Your System

  • Dump copper blocks into your input chest
  • Hoppers automatically feed them into furnaces
  • Smelted ingots flow into your output chest
  • Refill fuel as needed

Scaling Up

You can expand this system by adding more furnaces in parallel. This is useful if you're deconstructing large copper builds or want a dedicated recycling area. The mod's compatibility with all oxidation states means you can throw any copper block variant into the system without sorting.
