Fuel converter

A fuel converter was a device that allowed starship captains to forego the expense of buying new fuel cells or refueling. Fuel converters converted other materials, including waste materialGalaxy Guide 6: Tramp Freighters and methane, into fuel. Three types were in general use; Solid Fuel Converters, Scoops, and Solar Converters.
Fuel converters were parts used in podracers and were used in trades. In 32 BBY, Qui-Gon Jinn acquired a fuel converter to trade for parts for Anakin Skywalker's podracer.Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace video game
