Design Blueprint: A Wet-Oxidation Waste Processor for a Closed Habitat: Oxygen Demand, Reactor Conditions and Recovered Water
Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24145394): This paper presents a computed design for a wet-oxidation reactor that oxidises faeces, food waste and inedible biomass in hot compressed water, returning water and carbon dioxide to the loops instead of storing solid waste for the whole mission. Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json. AI-use disclosure: Dave, an AI research system, assisted with the computation and drafting under the author's direction; author of record William Alexander Aldred.
