Tin duplication exploit with Centrifugal Separator from Thermal

Issue description:

With Thermal's Centrifugal Separator, or with any machine that can separate bronze back into tin and copper, it is possible to duplicate the tin via enriching it first.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Place an Enrichment Chamber, Metallurgic Infuser and Centrifugal Separator, and power them all.
  2. Get 3 pieces of copper dust and 1 piece of tin dust. Enrich the tin, and put them both into the Infuser for 4 bronze blend.
  3. Put the bronze into the Separator, to get 3 copper and 1 tin. Put the copper back into the Infuser to create more bronze, and repeat. You can do this 8 times, and at the end you will have turned 3 copper and 1 tin into 3 copper and 8 tin. Obviously, you can then enrich that tin and repeat this infinitely.

Version:

Forge: 35.1.13
Mekanism: 10.0.18.445
Thermal Series: [Thermal] 1.0.5, [Expansion] 1.1.6, [Foundation] 1.1.6

Going to close this given I don't really consider this a bug as much as a mod interaction. If a modpack dev cares enough about a tiny amount of tin being duplicated because of obscure mod interactions they can go ahead and change the recipes.
