I-LUNASYS: Innovative lunar water resource system

AQUALUNAR CHALLENGE FINALIST

Developed by Perspective Space-Tech Ltd, London.

Using motorised pumps controlled by sensors, samples are heated at a constant pressure to separate and remove impurities as gas (isobaric vaporisation, followed by isothermal distillation). Using membranes and carbon filters, reverse osmosis separates the water molecules from the sample before entering a final UV filtration system. The system would be designed to be maintained by robots and could have new processes easily plugged into the system using “fluidic circuitry boards”.
