Plasma-Based Water Purification For Crewed Space Missions: Laboratory Experimental Comparisons For On-Board Applicability, Ryan P. Gott, Sydney D. Miller, Josie C. Hodges, Kunning G. Xu Aug 2021

Plasma-Based Water Purification For Crewed Space Missions: Laboratory Experimental Comparisons For On-Board Applicability, Ryan P. Gott, Sydney D. Miller, Josie C. Hodges, Kunning G. Xu

PRC-Affiliated Research

Low-temperature, atmospheric pressure plasma presents a new, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly method of water purification. For long duration crewed space missions, a novel water purification system that does not rely on consumable filters and chemicals would be desirable. Plasma systems provide a viable option for these missions, but their operation and designs need to be optimized and compared to existing technology. For this application, gas and power usage are key limiting factors. In this work, water contaminated with methylene blue is purified with plasma. The rate of purification, gas flow usage, and power consumption are compared for multiple devices. A …
