A Compact, Efficient Pyrolysis/Oxidation System for Solid Waste Resource Recovery in Space
SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC. Topic: X203Both pyrolysis and oxidation steps have been considered as the key solid waste processing step for a Controlled Ecological Life Support System (CELSS). Pyrolysis is more amenable to handling mixed solid waste streams in a microgravity environment, but produces a more complex product stream. Oxidation (incineration) produces a simpler product stream, but the oxidation of mixed solids is a complex u ...

Interchangeable Bearings for Profile and Weight Trade Studies
SBC: AIR-LOCK, INCORPORATED Topic: X503Air-Lock, Incorporated is proposing to design fully sealed shoulder and arm bearings with interchangeable bearing housings. The interchangeable housings shall be utilized in trade studies to determine the optimal bearing profile and weight relative to the shoulder and arm position. It is assumed that the next generation of NASA pressure suits will require the crewmember to utilize their suit in ...

Micro Pulsed Inductive Thruster with Solid Fuel Option (uPIT_SF)
SBC: EAGLE HARBOR TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: S201The Micro Pulsed Inductive Thruster with Solid Fuel Option (µPIT_SF) is a high-precision impulse bit electromagnetic plasma micro-thruster. The µPIT prototype is a small (< 230 g) thruster that produces and accelerates plasma. In the solid fuel mode, µPIT_SF is able to substantially extend the performance of standard PPT systems by ionization and heating of the high density neutral gas produce ...

Low Energy Particle Size Reduction for Biomass Feedstocks
SBC: FOREST CONCEPTS LLC Topic: 18dSize reduction, or comminution, is a necessary, but energy intensive, processing step in the conversion of lingo-cellulosic biomass feedstocks into biofuels, including ethanol, bio-oil, and other products. Comminution ¿ by chippers, grinders, hammer mills, and the like ¿ not only consumes excessive energy but also produces a wide particle size distribution and often requires costly dust control ...

Instrumentation for Quantifiable Experimental Mechanics at the Deep Nanoscale
SBC: HUMMINGBIRD PRECISION MACHINE CO. Topic: N/AResearchers are currently hindered from observing dynamic liquid-liquid and liquid-solid interactions in transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) and scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEMs). Yet, solid-state materials and fluids interact in many important ways. For example, solid-state nanoparticles are formed via solution-based synthesis, and biological cells exist live only in a flu ...
