If an NPC station is capable of refining then its equipment will have an efficiency rating between 30% and 50% (you can search for stations with 50% reprocessing efficiency by criteria, for example npc-corp or solar system, at [http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eve_db/universe/station_search/ Station search page]). Obviously using a station with 50% equipment is better so pilots should take care when choosing a refining station and check this value before use. (You can use third-party map tools like [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/ DOTLAN] to quickly check this. A list of the [[Mining_in_the_Apetter_Constellation|stations in Aptetter]] is available) | If an NPC station is capable of refining then its equipment will have an efficiency rating between 30% and 50% (you can search for stations with 50% reprocessing efficiency by criteria, for example npc-corp or solar system, at [http://eve-online.itemdrop.net/eve_db/universe/station_search/ Station search page]).

In addition, NPC stations take a tax for using their refining facilities. The tax is based on the player's personal or corporation standings with the station's owner, whichever standing is higher is used. The tax starts at 5% with 0 standings and falls to 0% at 6.67 standings with the station owner. Hence, it's a good idea to refine at stations for which you or your corp have the best relationship.

Furthermore, for pilots looking to get their refining yield even higher, they may wish to look into the Zainou 'Beancounter' Refining RX series implants. These [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Implants#Skill_Hardwirings Implants] are slot 8 Skill Hardwirings found in the market under Resource Processing Implants. They come in 3 varieties RX-801 (1%), RX-802 (2%) and RX-804 (4%) to provide an expensive but possibly worthwhile investment that will bring a pilot closer to an effective 100% refining efficiency in their station or POS of choice. | Furthermore, for pilots looking to get their refining yield even higher, they may wish to look into the Zainou 'Beancounter' Refining RX series implants.

Unfortunately, even with 100% efficiency, you may not receive all the minerals to which you are entitled. The tax man needs his share. The Corporation running the refinery will take up to 5% of the minerals depending on your personal or corporation's standings with the refining station. | Unfortunately, even with 100% efficiency, you may not receive all the minerals to which you are entitled.
