Abstract: A multi-waste processing system includes a processing chamber. The processing chamber includes one or more heaters and a piston, and the processing chamber is configured to evaporate liquid waste and compact solid waste input. A condenser is operably connected to the processing chamber. The condenser is configured to condense water from the evaporated liquid waste output from the processing chamber. A gas and water separator is operably connected to the condenser. The gas and water separator is configured to separate water from the evaporated liquid waste output from the processing chamber. A recirculation pathway connects the gas and water separator to the processing chamber to recirculate gas from the gas and water separator to the processing chamber. The piston is actuated to keep the one or more heaters in close proximity to the solid waste and the liquid waste in the processing chamber.

Abstract: A rotary phase separator for a space environment includes a housing defining a separator chamber therein and a shaft located along a longitudinal axis of the rotary phase separator and inside the housing. Relative motion between the housing and the shaft about the longitudinal axis urging separation of gas and liquid from a two-phase liquid and gas fluid in the separator chamber. One or more magnetic bearing assemblies are supportive of the shaft relative to the housing.

Abstract: A component assembly for a space environment includes a main body, and a plurality of main body openings in the main body. Each main body opening has an identical cross-sectional shape. A plurality of inserts are installed to the main body at respective main body openings of the plurality of main body openings. Each insert of the plurality of inserts defines a fluid port for a fluid flow to flow into the main body or out of the main body via the respective main body openings. At least two fluid ports have a different cross-sectional configuration.
