In a mystcraft age I have found liquid yellorium and now I'm trying to get ingots out of it. I tried serveral ways like TC, but nothing worked and before I spend to much time, I ask if you know any way to form ingots. So please let me know if you have an idea how it could work or maybe you know it already.
Thanks

I'll experiment a little bit and get back to ya on it. I'm wondering if there isn't a way to export it directly into the reactor itself.

Aye, it seems to be totally useless, unfortunately. Well, its good at destroying water, but that's about it. It can't be stored, either, not even using ME Fluid Transition Planes from ExtraCells. Pretty, but useless.

It shouldn't (mystcraft aside) exist outside of a filled fuel rod within a reactor, so I don't think it can be used in anyway sadly.

So it seems to me too, but you can store it in every tank I tried (open blocks or drums from Extra Utilities). Do you know Rotarycraft well, because there's a fluid crystallizer, maybe it works (you can pump the yellorite in it), but I don't know this mod at all.

You could use Minetweaker to add a recipe that 1 bucket of yellowrite = 1 ingot. Then in theory you could pump it into a TE cyclic assembler, and produce ingots as fast as you can pump the liquid.

The problem with this idea is that the liquid yellorite chances its id, when pumped into any machine. So the bucket contains a differnt liquid. One solution I found, is to fill florbs with the yellorium and "cook" them into ingots, but it works with all other florbs too :( . Nobody knowing if the Rotarycraft solution is working?

You'll have to rename the age to "Land of False Hope" and move on.

I know this post is old and most of you have figured it out by now but undoubtedly since I found it on google, someone else has/will as well so I decided to update it. You can pump the liquid into a smeltry (and probably other liquid accepting devices) and then output blocks and ingots from there. How to get it into the smeltry is left as an exercise for the reader. I have the following setup:

Yellowium ocean:
1x chunkloader to keep the world loaded
1x pump to pump out the yellorium into an ender tank
1x ender tank linked to one in the overworld
1x power supply (solar is great if you created a world that's always sunny, throw a battery there if not)
1x fluidduct to get from pump to tank

Overworld
1x ender tank linked to one in yellowium world
1x smeltry drain attached to the smeltry
1x fludduct to pump yellowium into smeltry (you can use as many as you want depending on the distance between the tank and the smeltry drain)
1x liquid transporter pair (this automatically pulls the yellorium into a basin to create blocks)
1x basin

From there, you can do whatever you want to get it into the big reactor. I use an elaborate setup of itemducts that pushes yellorium blocks into my reactor, pulls cyanite (sp) and converts it into yellorium then pushes it back into the reactor.

In lieu of a full on smeltry, you can also pump the yellorium into the tank, and then attach a fluidduct between the tank and a smeltry basin. This will output the yellorium from the tank into the basin and create a block. Then you can route it however you wish.

There's likely 100 or more ways you can deal with it. If you find an interesting way, please update the post as it's helpful to others that are looking.

Major thread necromancy, as you're aware; quick point: when this thread was written, the OP looks to have already tried Tinkers Construct :
I tried serveral ways like TC, but nothing worked
Which means that at that time, 3 years ago, the mod integration was not in place to allow it to occur. Clearly that's now been changed, but I don't think that's reason to bring up such an old thread, instead of just posting in the "Interesting thing you've discovered" thread. You clearly did so with good intentions, which is commendable, but most people wouldn't go digging back so far to find an answer anyway as they probably wouldn't come across the problem!

I think perhaps there's a slight misunderstanding here. I didn't "dig it up" I did a google search for liquid yellorium fuel and this was the third result. That's the only reason I updated the thread. Posting in "interesting things i learned" is fantastic except that's not what came up in a search so it's of limited helpfulness to someone who isn't familiar with these forums. The point is, even though the thread is 3 years old, the question could still be relevant to someone and seeing as it's still coming up in google's top 5, I felt it worth updating.

...you know, you make an excellent point. If anyone hasn't already thought to try TiC, it might not occur to them, in which case the crux of your point - that it can be drained into basins and turned into blocks - is relevant and useful.

Apologies!

i found it, in vision 1.7.10 infinity evolved
tank the yelloruim n place a tesseract n next to casting basin from thinker n it automatically full is n it turns into a block no need for smelter

IIRC, there were 2 different fluids mystcraft was picking out of the code to generate in the ages. Liquid yellorium, which really only existed inside the fuel cells and was completely unusable, and molten yellorium, which was the Tinkers Construct compatibility version that could be cast into blocks and ingots, and you didn't have to pump it through a smeltery, you could pump it streight into a casting table/basin. I don't know if that is still a problem with newer versions and mods like moo fluids.
