Answer:

They found the process could produce 290 liters of methane per crew per day, all produced in a week, Pullammanappallil said. Their results led to the creation of a process that uses an anaerobic digester. That process kills pathogens from human waste, and produces biogas -- a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide.

Answer:

In space travel, chlorella pyrenoidosa is used to remove carbon dioxide and decompose human waste.

Explanation:

  • Chlorella pyrenoidosa, a type of freshwater green algae, can help astronauts get rid of CO_2 and recycle other wastes while in space. The algae reproduce quickly, utilising CO_2 and liberating O_2 during photosynthesis. It produces N_2 for protein synthesis by decomposing human urine and faeces.
  • Algae's main function is to produce oxygen, consume carbon dioxide exhaled by humans, and convert nitrogen-rich wastes.
