WATER RECOVERY FROM HUMAN WASTE DURING PROLONGED CONFINEMENT IN THE LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM EVALUATOR.
Abstract
The recovery of water from urine and/or atmospheric condensate was carried out. Each experiment included the confinement of 4 subjects inside the Aerospace Medical Research Laboratories Life Support Systems Evaluator for a period of 4 weeks. The reclamation equipment included a thermoelectric distillation device, an electro dialysis unit and a dehumidification system. The water recovered was analyzed to determine its suitability for human consumption. (Author)
