Faraday Technology, Inc., a small business subsidiary of Physical Sciences Inc., received a $1.04 million Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract award from NASA on May 1, 2017, to develop electrochemical peroxide generation technology for in-situ disinfection in spacecraft habitats. The contract, designated as a total small business set-aside with a firm fixed price structure, is scheduled for completion by April 30, 2022, and will be performed in Clayton, Ohio. The project addresses NASA's need for energy-efficient maintenance solutions for closed air, water, and waste systems in microgravity environments, particularly for long-duration missions to Mars. During this Phase II effort, Faraday will advance its electrochemical peroxide generation device by conducting zero-gravity testing to validate the design concept, optimizing the gas diffusion electrode catalytics and surface properties, and demonstrating compatibility with International Space Station water utilities. The company will also develop an electrochemical peroxide detector and design a pilot-scale reactor capable of producing one liter per day of two weight-percent hydrogen peroxide. By enhancing the technology readiness level and demonstrating feasibility through these development activities, this innovation has potential applications as both a commercial hydrogen peroxide synthesis method and an alternative for in-situ onsite disinfection of process waste streams on NASA's manned space missions, significantly reducing the requirement for Earth-based cleaning supplies during extended missions.
