Scientific paper

Design and advantages of conveyer-type growth chamber PHYTOCYCLE with a cylindrical crop surface are featured. Based on the results of testing, an experimental prototype of conveyer-type vegetable greenhouse VITACYCLE for space vehicles is being developed at the SSC-IBMP in conjunction with a number of institutions of the Russian space industry to provide space crews with fresh greenery. Rated daily production of the greenhouse is 150 g of eatable biomass with power consumption of 1 kW. The system is to be mounted within the life support module of international space station Alpha (ISSA). Design of the greenhouse is outlined. Brief description, state-of-the-art, and further plans regarding VITACYCLE elaboration and construction are presented.
