Innovators at the NASA Johnson Space Center, in collaboration with Jacobs Technology, have developed a reliable, efficient, and cost-effective carbon dioxide (CO2) removal and dehumidification system. The Liquid Sorbent Carbon Dioxide Removal System was designed as an alternative to the current CO2 removal technology used on the International Space Station (ISS), which uses solid zeolite media that is prone to dusting, has a low absorption capacity, and requires high regeneration temperatures and frequent maintenance.
