Relatively simple Alloy-Smelting

    Hello, I spent some time over the last week or so working on a project of mine, a way of making an automated Multi-Alloy smelter using ambient heat, and only breakable materials. (I.E. No diamond, but I do use semi-unbreakable materials such as HSWC and PUMP)

    So far, it works decently well, using an interesting system with TTAN to block out the huge pressure generated via the smelting process. However, there is one big problem: Cooling.

    I am making this to be 100% reliant on ambient heat, except for cooling (I could make it complete, but it cools slow as it is.) which takes a VERY long time using TRON cooling.

    Are there any suggestions on improving cooling? if you need a model, I could post the Beta save.

    Even if nobody has any suggestions, thanks!

    use liquid gases
    or cflm
    or life

    TRON.

    Or if you want to make it realistic, a piping system circulating LOX, cooling down O2
