To recycle a debris field, select it and send a Recycling mission to its stable identifier. The field must still exist at the time of departure.

The recycler travels to the field and collects according to its effective cargo capacity. Collection is proportional to the field's composition. If it can collect everything, the field disappears; otherwise, the remaining resources stay at the same position. As long as resources remain in the field, another Recycling mission can be sent.

The recycler recovers the resources present in the field, which may contain:

  • Iron;
  • Crystal;
  • Aether.

Space losses and debris field formation ratios are detailed in Debris Field Formation.
