	For context, 10 items per second ~~generated~~ from this distribution ~~is expected to~~ require ~3.7 common-tier recyclers to process. This expectation will change in proportion with ~~the~~ recycle time ~~of removed items~~. For example, separating concrete, iron, and steel removes ~58% of recycling time so 10 items per second ~~generated~~ from the remaining 15 ~~items is expected to~~ require ~1.5 recyclers.		For context, recycling 10 items per second from this distribution will require ~3.7 common-tier recyclers to process (in expectation). This expectation will change in proportion with changes in recycle-time percentage. For example, separating concrete, iron, and steel removes ~58% of recycling time so recycling 10 items per second from the remaining 15 item collection will require 3.7 x 0.42 = ~1.6 recyclers.

Dagorad62: Added a section for equilibrium scrap behavior when one is continuously and recursively recycling scrap output. This is an inherent property of scrap arising from the distribution of outputs as well as the behavior of recyclers. It is also highly relevant to most Fulgora setups.

 Recycling cannot undo chemistry, which means that it is not possible to obtain crude/light/heavy oil, petroleum, lubricant, coal or sulfur from scrap.
