Actually came to me in a dream.
Besides food, three things a space station crew needs are electricity, oxygen, and water. So instead of sending up all three separately, send up hydrogen peroxide. The H2O2 can be run over a silver catalyst, producing a mixture of high temperature steam and free oxygen that can be used to drive a turbine to generate electricity. The high temperature steam can then be re-condensed into drinking water, and the liberated oxygen used for breathing. Pat |
