Bioregenerative life support [PDF]

open access: yes
Bioregenerative life support systems utilize plant growth for food, water, and atmosphere revitalization. Simulation studies of a simplified model are presented that suggest survivability in the face of partial plant growth chamber failure.

3D printed aeroponic tray nutrient delivery system for bioregenerative life support systems

open access: yes, 2016
Bioregenerative systems incorporating higher plants are recognized as a promising life support system option for future long-duration space missions. Aeroponic nutrient delivery systems have been regarded as a suitable method to grow plants in space due to their low mass penalty compared to soil cultivation and traditional hydroponics.

THE CHALLENGING DREAM OF PLANTS IN SPACE

open access: yesAnnales Kinesiologiae, 2012
Plants are essential components of Bioregenerative Life Support Systems (BLSS) because they provide fresh food, produce oxygen, uptake CO2 from air and purify waste water via the leaf transpiration processes.

The Giant African Land Snail Achatina fulica (Bowdich, 1720) as a Candidate Species for Bioregenerative Life Support Systems [PDF]

open access: yesЖурнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2015
The capability of snails to consume and convert inedible plant biomass and kitchen waste was tested. Inedible biomass of wheat and cabbage and also potato peels as a food were worse than lettuce, which is an ordinary feed for snails. In order to describe

Is Sustainable Development of Deserts Feasible? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Hot deserts that presently cover about one-fifth of the land area of our planet are rapidly devouring more and more arable lands mostly due to anthropogenic causes. We propose an interdisciplinary approach to revitalizing and commercializing hot deserts,
