- 2 ways to make it
Deuterium is a high energy substance in No Man's Sky. The best yield: refine Di-hydrogen x1, Tritium x1 in a Medium Refiner.
Best yield
Calculate
1 batch: 1 Di-hydrogen + 1 Tritium in a Medium Refiner makes 1, about 0.24s in one refiner.

Frequently asked questions
To craft Deuterium, you need Di-hydrogen x1, Tritium x1. Use the Refiner to combine them.
You need: Di-hydrogen x1, Tritium x1.
About
A stable hydrogen isotope used heavily in both small-scale fusion reactors and neutron-scattering shield technology.
Deuterium very rarely occurs naturally. Most of the galaxy's supply comes from the processing of Di-hydrogen and Tritium in Refiners.
