A ketracel-white facility was an installation where the Dominion manufactured ketracel-white and from where they distributed it to the Jem'Hadar.
History and specifics[]
Three months into the Dominion War, Starfleet Intelligence located a facility deep in Cardassian space. Benjamin Sisko and his crew were assigned to destroy it, travelling to the installation in a Jem'Hadar fighter and by beaming down a canister filled with ultritium. Although not everything went to plan, the facility was successfully destroyed. (DS9 episode: "A Time to Stand", DS9 novelization: Call to Arms...)
In 2375, new facilities were constructed in the Pelosa system and near Devos II, the latter being operated by the Son'a. (DS9 episodes: "Treachery, Faith, and the Great River", "Penumbra")
During the war, several fleets attacked ketracel-white facilities, not always being successful. The Achilles-class was later used to make such assaults, although the Dominion countered this by using Jem'Hadar super carriers, which had ketracel-white facilities of their own.
