“…This compound may be responsible for some of the reported unknown events, as it would be expected that ENose sensors designed to detect octafluoropropane would respond to SF 6 . Finally, ANITA reported detection of three other species from the ENose target list, ammonia, methanol and ethanol [11], all of which are reported by ENose. The concentrations reported by ANITA are averaged over time, and are well below those seen as events by ENose.…”

“…Results from ANITA experiments showed that there was much greater fluctuation in the composition of air in the US Lab than had previously been thought [11]. In particular, the ANITA experiment showed a persistent presence of low-concentration Freon 218 (octafluoropropane) with occasional spikes in concentration.…”

“…In particular, the ANITA experiment showed a persistent presence of low-concentration Freon 218 (octafluoropropane) with occasional spikes in concentration. [11] With this knowledge, we expected that we might see changes in Freon 218 concentration in the environment, along with other small organic molecules previously measured in the ISS atmosphere, such as alcohols and formaldehyde. Table 2 is a complete list of all events detected in the period December 9, 2008 through April 7, 2009.…”

“…Previous work in testing air quality instruments on ISS has included the Volatile Organics Analyzer (VOA) from NASA and the Analysing Interferometer for Ambient Air (ANITA) from the European Space Agency [11]. VOA measurements are taken up to a few times a day, and so provide a snapshot of the presence (or absence) of some forty chemical species, but does not give insight into air constituent changes lasting less than several hours.…”

The Third Generation ENose is an air quality monitor designed to operate in the environment of the US Lab on the International Space Station (ISS). It detects a selected group of analytes at target concentrations in the ppm regime at an environmental temperature range of 18 -30 o C, relative humidity from 25 -75% and pressure from 530 to 760 torr. This device was installed and activated on ISS on Dec. 9, 2008 and has been operating continuously since activation. Data are downlinked and analyzed weekly. Results of analysis of ENose monitoring data show the short term presence of low concentration of alcohols, octafluoropropane and formaldehyde as well as frequent short term unknown events.

Dynamic Sampling of Cabin VOCs during the Mission Operations Test of the Deep Space Habitat

NASA . Jet Propulsion Lab, CA, 91011The atmospheric composition inside spacecraft is dynamic due to changes in crew metabolism and payload operations. A portable FTIR gas analyzer was used to monitor the atmospheric composition of four modules (Core lab, Veggie Plant Atriun, Hygiene module, and Xhab loft) within the Deep Space Habitat '(DSH) during the Mission Operations Test (MOT) conducted at the Johnson Space Center. The FTIR was either physically relocated to a new location or the plumbing was changed so that a different location was monitored. An application composed of 20 gases was used and the FTIR was zeroed using N2 gas every time it was relocated. The · procedures developed for operating the FTIR were successful as all data was collected and the FTIR worked during the entire MOT mission. Not all the 20 gases in the application sampled were detected and it was possible to measure dynamic VOC concentrations in each DSH location.
