Introduction
Experiments
There are currently x experiments you can complete with help of the toxins lab, which can all be found by downloading the NT frontier app on your tablet or modular computer. Completing any of these experiments rewards you with research points, as well as money for the department funds. The exact amount depends on the tier and partner selected, higher tiers reward more, and some partners will reward more funding, while others will reward more points. Finally, some tech options are locked behind certain experiments:
High-Yield Explosives unlocks Advanced Weapons Research
Noblium Gas shells unlocks
Nitrium Gas shellsunlocks Advanced Cybernetic Implants
Tritium
A number of experiments, including all needed to unlock technology, require tritium. Tritium is created by mixing oxygen with plasma at high temperatures, preferably at a ratio of 99:1 oxygen to plasma. To do this, we will use the burn chamber conveniently provided to us in the toxins mixing chamber.
Initial Piping
Leave the input loop (black) alone, as it suits our needs for now. Modify the the green (orange on metastation) loop by adding a cooler to it, you will want to connect the red side of the cooler directly into waste, you can move a cooler by screwing the panel open and then right clicking it with a wrench, left click rotates the cooler. Also replace the pipe directly adjacent to the connector with a volume pump, make sure this is OFF. Next acquire a firesuit, open the outer doors blast doors to expose space, and enter the airlock. Inside of the airlock, place down a connector on layer 1 (shown in purple), and cycle the airlock to exterior. Add a scrubber directly behind the door, and pipe this to the connector. Now add 2 additional scrubbers to the green loop. Lastly, add a fourth scrubber facing to space, and connect it to a passive vent in space (shown in black). This is it for the piping, head back inside.
Use the air alarm next to the burn chamber, and set all scrubbers to extended range. Set the scrubbers connected to the green line to scrub tritium, and turn them all on. Set the black scrubber connected to space to scrub H2O and CO2, and turn it on. Set the purple scrubber connected to the connector to plasma, but keep it off for now.
Next, make sure both of the pumps inside of the airlock are set to 4500kPa.
Finally, yell at science for upgrades for the two coolers. Set both coolers to 30 kelvin (43.15 works too if you dont have higher-tier parts), and turn them on.
Tritium production Connect an oxygen canister to the input port and wait untill it is empty, repeat this step two more times untill you have emptied three canisters into the burn chamber. Connect a mini pump to output of the burn mix. Create a tier two canister with 10 metal and 5 plasteel, and wrench this in place on the connector in the airlock (shown in red). Next, set the input pump back down to 50kPa, and double check your setup, once you are statisfied, connect a plasma tank to the input and hit the igniter on the wall, the plasma will now burn. After several seconds of the chamber heating up, you should see check the output loop with a gas analyzer, and if all goes well you should see it filling up with tritium. Keep an eye on the tank monitor and wait for the mixture to reach around 15 000 kelvin, once this temperature has been reached, turn on the plasma scrubber on the air alarm, and watch the t2 canister fill up with hot plasma. Once your plasma canister reaches around 3100kPA, turn the scrubber back off. Now wait for the rest of the plasma to be converted into tritium, and once it is cooled pump it into small pump, and you should have several hundred moles, congratulations!
