🆕 Updated for Eco 14 — “Garbage & Recycling” — this server and these numbers now reflect the new version. What changed →
  • Byproducts: nearly every recipe now leaves waste behind, so recipe pages list byproducts alongside ingredients.
  • Garbage & recycling: waste sorts from mixed garbage down to pure materials, and can be recycled back into stock.
  • Pollution has four kinds: acid rain, chemical, soil and heavy mineral, each settling into the ground differently. Pollution guide →
  • Modules reworked: upgrades are now Basic / Advanced / Modern / Specialty, one per slot, driving the same bonus system as talents. Module guide →
  • Fresh water: machines need it — water drawn from the ocean has to be desalinated first.

The character calculator has been updated for these changes. Read the garbage & recycling guide →

Mixed Metal Scrap

Mixed Metal Scrap

Notes

Mixed Metal Scrap is a block item produced by sorting garbage, containing metallic materials that still require refining. It is a solid, diggable block that can be carried on your back, stacking up to 20 units. If you have scrap from sorting, remember it must be further processed to recover usable metal — it is not a direct crafting input itself.
