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

How it works
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.
Ion exchange
1
The organic compounds in the ion
exchange water are decomposed by the
oxidizing substances created by the
electrolysis of water.
Electrolysis
2
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.
