Transkinetic chamber

A transkinetic chamber was a component utilized aboard Federation starships in the 24th century, for the purpose of breaking down residual antimatter on the subatomic level.

In 2375, B'Elanna Torres, chief engineer of the USS Voyager, described the principles of the transkinetic chamber to Malon Controller Emck, along with those of radiometric converters, as a way of demonstrating the elimination of antimatter waste. Emck, however, received the information less than warmly, as the elimination of toxic reactants would put him out of the waste-exporting business.
