Reduce PH2O -> PO2 conversion inside metal refinery

[Alpe12]

It's an enclosed space, so I think this conversion shouldn't happen there. Or only happen when the machine is in use.

It also doesn't seem to follow the "four times a second it has a 0.1% chance of converting 0.1% of the surface cell's mass" "rule", converting in a fixed interval of about 1s, so maybe it makes more sense to reduce the rate of the conversion inside it instead of removing it.

Perhaps not?

It's been reported as a bug but I feel it's intentional.

I believe you can get rid of it by placing the refinery into 5+ kg/tile of gas. Or using a different liquid for coolant. Oil or petroleum might be a good idea.

I though about that too. But the way it looks in the game it seems to be either partially or fully enclosed.
Either way the recomendation to remove or limit it (below) remains.

I usually don't build the rock granulator and use metal refinery quite early, using PH2O at first and changing to crude oil/petroleum as soon as I can.
