A Study on Wet-Oxidation Waste Management Process Design

The catalytic Wet-Oxidation process is the most feasible candidate for the waste management process of CELSS in comparison with other applicable technologies such as dry incineration, vapor compression distillation, etc.

In this report we try and discuss the design of a Wet-Oxidation Waste Management Process which supports 1 person's life in a closed system.

The proposed Wet-Oxidation Waste Management process treats the waste by a two-step reaction. Planned capacity is approximately 2.5kg- dry/day.

A design concept, schematic flow and basic configuration of Wet-Oxidation apparatus are considered and discussed in this paper.
