This process doesn’t involve a cement mixer, or some other simple operating cylinder.. even if the reactor is copied, the catalyst is critical, as is the batch processing to get the operation to work. None of this process can or would be plug and play, as evidenced by the whole idea of being able to manufacture different versions of graphite. The process conditions are almost infinite, between pressure and temperature, or even flow conditions depending on the new reactor. So… why would it matter if they could copy a reactor design in China.
Those pipes and cylinders look to me like essential criteria, storage containers, possibly a psa or 2.. the piping also essential. Do what you can now, so that when the reactor arrives it’s plugged straight in to existing infrastructure. As for waiting for materials, have you been to Bunnings lately. There isn’t much on the shelves, especially if your renovating a home. Timber is a scarce item and has increased close to 100% in value, so builders use steel, which is also in very scarce supply.
Add to that WA having its boarders closed to….. well… everyone, and you wonder why their are time overruns and cost blowouts.
Deep breath mate, with the share price doing what it’s doing, we have NOTHING to complain about.
