Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Tech Transfer
Carbon Dioxide Collection and Pressurization Technology, Phase I
Project Introduction
Reactive Innovations, LLC, proposes a Phase I SBIR program to develop a compact and lightweight electrochemical reactor to separate and pressurize carbon dioxide from the Martian atmosphere. Our approach builds on recently developed technology in our laboratory and others in selective separation based on electrochemically modulated facilitated transport. This process electrochemically pumps the bound CO2 across a membrane separator effectively concentrating and pressurizing it in a separate process stream.
