The Elemental Phase Deconstructor (EPD) is a device for destabilizing the atomic structure of an existing molecule and separating it into subatomic particles which are then siphoned off to create new elements and molecules. Developed by the Union Aerospace Corporation at their Alpha Labs on Mars, the EPD was inititally designed to convert naturally occuring iron oxides (FE2O3) into air, water and hydrogen fuel for terraforming purposes. According to a UAC promotional material, the EPD could be further refined to manufacture all kinds of molecules, including petrochemicals and nutrition.
