Kurita´s next generation water recycling system
Picture povided by JAXA

Background Solution Benefits

Why is a water recovery Kurita´s next generation • High water recovery rate:
system necessary? water recycling system: recycling rate of 85% or
• Several thousand dollars • System installation in the more
per 1 kg of water Japanese experiment • Low power consumption
• Delivery time: 5 days module „Kibo“ on ISS • No maintenance needed

How it works
1 2
Ion exchange
Magnesium and calcium components in
the urine are removed through the ion
exchange reaction caused by the cation
exchange resin. This prevents the
adhesion and deposition of water-
insoluble components (scale trouble) in
the later stages.
Electrolysis
The organic compounds in the ion
exchange water are decomposed by the
oxidizing substances created by the
electrolysis of water.
3
Electrodialysis
The remaining ions from the previous
process are removed by the ion exchange
film that allows only specific ions to pass
through. This leaves treated water that is
of drinkable level quality. In addition, the
remaining ions are separated into cations
and anions to produce acid and alkali.
These are used to regenerate ion
exchange resins.
