Abstract:
A method for water recovery from the atmosphere of a habitable pressurized module laden with water vapors released by the inhabitants of said pressurized module, comprising the steps of condensing vapor to produce a gas-liquid mixture, filtering said mixture, carrying out catalytic oxidation of undissociating organic compounds contained in the gas-liquid mixture into dissociating ones by means of a metal-carbon catalyst containing at least one metal of the platinum group, separating condensate from said mixture, sorption-purification of condensate by passing it through activated carbon and ionites followed by disinfection, mineralization and preservation of purified condensate. The system for realization of said method comprises a successively arranged means for condensation of water vapors, a filter, a catalytic oxidation reaction vessel, a condensate separation unit, a sorption purification unit and a water conditioning unit.
