NASA-Johnson has guided the development of a nonventing Metal Oxide Regenerable EMU CO2 Removal Subsystem (MORES) which employs a catalyzed, Ag-based metal oxide to achieve CO2 removal during EVA, while requiring no supplemental cooling. Regeneration is then easily obtained by means of cabin air, in a simple hot-air process. The MORES technology has been demonstrated in the case of a full size EMU contaminant control cartridge employing a conventional packed bed, as well as an improved sheet matrix configuration.
