Description of requirement

IN THIS PHASE 1 SBIR PROPOSAL, VURONYX TECHNOLOGIES WILL DESIGN AN ENERGY EFFICIENT, LOW FOOTPRINT WATER RECOVERY SYSTEM FOR SPACE APPLICATIONS. THE PROPOSED SYSTEM WILL INTEGRATE TWO EMERGING WATER PURIFICATION APPROACHES - A CAPACITIVE DEIONIZATION (CDI) SYSTEM TO REMOVE IONS, AND AN ELECTROCHEMICAL ADVANCED OXIDATION PROCESS (EAOP) TO REMOVE ORGANIC CONTAMINANTS AND MICROBES. THE PROPOSED WORK BUILDS ON OUR WORK WITH EPA WHERE WE ARE DESIGNING COST AND ENERGY EFFICIENT CDI SYSTEMS FOR SMALL COMMUNITIES, AND WITH OXFAM, WHERE WE ARE DESIGNING DESALINATION SYSTEMS FOR REFUGEE CAMPS IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES.
