Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Materials Science
  • Space Engineering

Background:

  • Water recycling is crucial for long-duration manned space missions.
  • Real-time water quality monitoring is essential for astronaut safety.
  • Existing monitoring systems may be too large or resource-intensive for space applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a miniaturized, continuous flow potentiometric microanalyzer for on-board water quality monitoring.
  • To simultaneously measure potassium, chloride, and nitrate ions in recycled water.
  • To meet the specific requirements of space missions, including low reagent consumption and minimal waste generation.

Main Methods:

  • Construction of a Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC)-based microfluidic platform.
  • Integration of three ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) and a reference electrode.
  • Implementation of an automatic autocalibration process and computer-controlled fluidics management.

Main Results:

  • Simultaneous detection of potassium, chloride, and nitrate ions with optimal analytical characteristics.
  • Achieved linear ranges: Potassium (6.3-630 mg/L), Chloride (10-1000 mg/L), Nitrate (10-1000 mg/L).
  • Low detection limits (K+: 0.51 mg/L, Cl-: 1.58 mg/L, NO3-: 3.37 mg/L), high reproducibility (RSD ≤ 4%), and low reagent consumption (<2 mL/analysis).

Conclusions:

  • The developed microanalyzer is suitable for on-line water quality control in space missions.
  • The system effectively addresses challenges of miniaturization, low reagent use, and automation.
  • Signal processing successfully eliminated chloride interference on nitrate measurements.
