Potable Water Recovery for Space Habitation Systems Using Hybrid Life Support Systems: Biological Pretreatment Coupled with Reverse Osmosis for Humidity Condensate Recovery

2025-06-16

Abstract excerpt

The development of efficient and sustainable water recycling systems is essential for long-term human missions and the establishment of space habitats on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. Humidity condensate (HC) is a low-strength wastewater that is currently recycled on the International Space Station (ISS). The main contaminants in HC are primarily low-molecular-weight organics and ammonia. This has caused operational...
