These sound pretty cool, more options is always nice. Would this be safe to add to a playthrough with colonies up and running or does it require a new start?

Pretty interesting. Found a bug though, the Scrapyard produces stuff even while it's being built.

Very interested to see where this goes!
Some initial thoughts though:
Protective Gear is, quite frankly, a no-brainer to build on literally any planet. Being a non-industry structure with relatively low upkeep that buffs all other structures on the planet it doesn't really have any trade-off to building it. Personally I would make it an industry with a -50% hazard reduction so it's not an auto-build on every colony.
The conscription center offers very little for the trade-offs it presents. As export of marines generates no income the only actual benefit is being able to claim marines from that colony, a benefit to stability or defense rating would make the growth penalty a bit more palatable in my opinion.
Biomass processing is a very cool idea but another one that offers penalties more dramatic than the benefits. Admittedly I don't think I know how to improve this without just nerfing the penalties, which I think should remain severe given what the industry entails. Regardless I somewhat struggle to envision a good use-case for it.

Hey, I installed the mod and is going pretty well so far. No bugs nor crashes, but I found some balance issues.
The protective gear is unbalanced for its cost and what it offers. -25% hazard is quite op and the building doesn't have downsides.
On the other hand, the conscription building is quite... useless? It should add more stability or the chance to eradicate pathers quicker.
The scrapyard is an interesting concept, but I haven't built it yet.

I ran into the problem of only 12 structures being possible to build on a planet. Is there any way to build more?

You should be able to build more than 12 structures, but not able to see the 13th onward because of the UI. That is not something I can fix

Changing required game version in mod files to current one allows you to run it no problem

There's another mod that adds a second page to the colony. https://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=20986.0
