“…There have been numerous reported water quality issues on-orbit in the Shuttle, Mir and more recently aboard the ISS. Selected examples have included high iodine levels in Shuttle water, caprolactam in stored water in contingency water containers (CWC) on the ISS and ethylene glycol coolant leaks from the thermal control system aboard Mir which subsequently resulted in high levels within the collected humidity condensate [198,202,203]. …”

“…Mir included conductivity sensing but this was the only process control monitoring that was conducted on-line [198,203]. Although there were initially considerable plans for in-flight water quality monitoring on-board the ISS, such as an on-line requirement for the monitoring of conductivity, pH, temperature, iodine and total organic carbon (TOC); only on-line conductivity sensing has been implemented [207].…”

The ability to monitor and control plant nutrient ions in fertigation solutions, on an ion-specific basis, is critical to the future of controlled environment agriculture crop production, be it in traditional terrestrial settings (e.g., greenhouse crop production) or as a component of bioregenerative life support systems for long duration space exploration. Several technologies are currently available that can provide the required measurement of ion-specific activities in solution. The greenhouse sector has invested in research examining the potential of a number of these technologies to meet the industry's demanding requirements, and although no ideal solution yet exists for on-line measurement, growers do utilize technologies such as high-performance liquid chromatography to provide off-line measurements. An analogous situation exists on the International Space Station where, technological solutions are sought, but currently on-orbit water quality monitoring is considerably restricted. This paper examines the specific advantages that on-line ion-selective sensors could provide to plant production systems both terrestrially and when utilized in space-based biological life support systems and how similar technologies could be applied to nominal on-orbit water quality monitoring. A historical development and technical review of the various ion-selective monitoring technologies is provided.

A novel high-impedance compound film material has been developed to satisfy the reservoir of many kinds of space liquid in space station. Considering the high gas-resistance and liquid-resistance, and its compatibility with the liquid in space station, the complex film was designed using 9 layers materials. The compatibility experiment and mechanical properties experiment showed that the high-impedance complex film has good compatibility with drinking water in space station. It also has excellent heat seal ability, physical and mechanical properties. The complex film also has high gas-resistance and water-resistance property, as well as great chemical corrosion-resistance property. The high-impedance complex film material offers a new method for the design and application of liquid container in space station.
