    Abstract: An airplane is provided. The airplane includes a pack. The pack includes a shaft, a compressor, and a turbine coupled to the compressor via the shaft. The turbine receives and expands a first medium to provide power to the compressor via the shaft. The compressor receives and compresses a second medium in accordance with the power provided by the turbine via the shaft. The turbine is fluidly coupled to a heat exchanger of an air conditioning system.

    Abstract: A system includes a first flow path fluidly connecting a first supply to an inerting apparatus. A second flow path connects a second supply to a turbine of a compressor device. A first valve, located within the first flow path, is configured to be open in a first state and closed in a second state. The first valve is configured to allow a supply of air from the first supply to an inerting apparatus directly. A second valve, located within the second flow path, is configured to be closed in the first state and open in the second state. The second valve is configured to allow a supply of air from the second supply to drive the turbine of the compressor device. When in the second state, the compressor device is operated to compress air from the first supply prior to the air being supplied to the inerting apparatus.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of environmental control, comprising: passing a first air stream and a second air stream through a valve; wherein the valve directs the first air stream through a first adsorption bed and directs the second air stream through a second adsorption bed; wherein the first adsorption bed produces a dehumidified air stream, and wherein the second adsorption bed is purged of moisture by the second air stream, thus producing a purge stream; and using the valve to redirect the first air stream and the second air stream when the first adsorption bed reaches a moisture saturation point or a timed interval, wherein the first air stream passes through the second adsorption bed and the second air stream passes through the first adsorption bed.
