The Processing Plant is a gruesome facility filled with large machines whose purpose is to dismember, crush, grind, melt, liquefy or otherwise process captive humans. The resulting bloody slurry is then used by the Strogg as a means of sustenance.

The Plant is heavily guarded and the air is filled with moans and cries of pain. Furthermore, the pools of bloody slurry will harm a player who comes into contact much like slime or lava. Nevertheless, Bitterman is determined to shut this place down for good.

Secrets

  • #1) After fighting a Tank, go to the upper level of this room, head to the threshold and look up at the red light; this is actually a Shootable Button; shoot it to open a secret compartment in the wall, which houses an Adrenaline.
  • #2) In the very next room, instead of going right where the Light Guard is guarding the button to deactivate one of the machines, jump off the left ledge and quickly tread the dangerous liquid over to the secret Quad Damage located down here. It's possible to avoid contact with the liquid by slowly crouch-walking towards the edge, or by jumping backwards from the upper ledge, and changing direction in mid-air.
  • #3) In the Bio Processing Control Unit room (with the fast-moving conveyor belt), use the button next to the elevator, which deactivates the aforementioned machine. After that, head into the small compartment on the conveyor belt that just opened up upon deactivation; there is a secret compartment in here that houses a Power Shield. Note: in the 2023 remaster, it is possible to collect the Power Shield by jumping towards the shield while crouched inside the compartment.
  • #4, 2023 remaster only: In the Bio-Compression Chamber room, head around towards the back of the chamber and look at the grate in the back of the room. Shoot the Shootable Switch within to open the grate and collect five Armor Shards.
