OCAM-2: A Second Generation Bioregenerative Life Support System Model
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1997<div class="htmlview paragraph">A second-generation system model has been developed to account for the movement of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen through the various life support system components. It accounts for edible and inedible biomass and the water content of plant materials, and models various crops based on growth and transpiration rate ...

Processes for Secondary Food Production in a Bioregenerative Life Support System
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1998<div class="htmlview paragraph">In order to support effective recycling of resources in a bioregenerative life support system (BLSS), the processing of inedible agricultural wastes into edible food products must be included. The process of converting agricultural waste into usable food resources is called secondary food production. Secondary food

Aquatic food production modules in bioregenerative life support systems based on higher plants
Advances in Space Research, 2001Most bioregenerative life support systems (BLSS) are based on gravitropic higher plants which exhibit growth and seed generation disturbances in microgravity. Even when used for a lunar or martian base the reduced gravity may induce a decreased productivity in comparison to Earth.

Importance of a Modelling Approach for Bioregenerative Life-Support Systems
2022Bioregenerative Life-Support Systems (BLSS) are key for long-duration space exploration missions, as they enable the recycling of crucial consumables such as water, oxygen, and food. As such, the MELiSSA (Micro-Ecological Life-Support System Alternative) loop is designed as a closed artificial ecosystem divided into 5 compartments, each ensuring a ...

FEMME: a precursor experiment for the evaluation of bioregenerative life support systems
Planetary and Space Science, 2000Abstract In long term manned space missions, oxygen, water and food supplies are a critical issue. Bioregenerative systems, and among them those relying on microbial processes, represent one of the most promising alternatives. Studies of these systems from the engineering point of view, requires the development of mathematical models and their ...

Conceptual design of a bioregenerative life support system containing crops and silkworms
Advances in Space Research, 2010Abstract This article summarizes a conceptual design of a bioregenerative life support system for permanent lunar base or planetary exploration. The system consists of seven compartments – higher plants cultivation, animal rearing, human habitation, water recovery, waste treatment, atmosphere management, and storages.

Bioregenerative life support systems for long-term space habitation: a conceptual approach.
Life support & biosphere science : international journal of earth space, 1996Life support systems represent one of the most critical aspects of human space exploration. Future long-term missions such as the establishment of human-tended Lunar and Martian bases require closed life support systems. A conceptual approach to an Engineered Closed/Controlled EcoSystem incorporating bioregenerative capabilities by integrating humans,
