[Spaceships] Antimatter Factory

This is awesome. So now I ask you gents to help me tune up my implementation.

Goal: to have factory facilities on board my space station/craft that serves as a base of operations for long-term exploration missions.

My setting is TL10.

The factory is in a SM+15 ship.

I have two anti-matter plasma torch engines with two fuel tanks (150K of fuel).

Based on your suggestions (aka "how you would do it"), how long would it take to make 150K tons of anti-matter boosted H2?

Would that take about 300K tons of ice (comets, asteroids, etc.)? More?

I appreciate your thoughts!!
