Abstract

Spaceflight application requires the removal and compression/storage of carbon dioxide for delivery to the Sabatier assembly. The carbon dioxide compression, storage, and delivery technologies include the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) mechanical compressor, the Temperature Swing Adsorption Compressor (TSAC), and the Carbon Dioxide Removal and Compression System (CRCS). The SwRI is a mechanical system whereas the TSAC and the CRCS are adsorption based. Here, a trade study using radar charts will be conducted to compare the different carbon dioxide compression and storage technologies for use with the Sabatier system.
