Abstract
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has been developing a CO2 removal system for acquiring core life support technologies for future manned space missions. JAXA has also been engaged in development activities for a system (including adsorbent) capable of removing cabin ppCO2 under 2 mmHg from four crew members on missions to Mars. JAXA has already verified that CO2 from four persons can be removed using an adsorbent developed from a bread board model (BBM). This paper reports the development status of the CO2 removal system as of 2021.
