Optimizing Nitrogen Fixation and Recycling for Food Production in Regenerative Life Support Systems
Nitrogen (N) recycling is essential for efficient food production in regenerative life support systems. Crew members with a high workload need 90–100 g of protein per person per day, which is about 14 g of N, or 1 mole of N, per person per day. Most of this N is excreted through urine with 85% as ur...
