Scientific paper

The anticipated evolution of life support technologies for ESA, considering both the complementary life support system requirements and the missions' characteristics, is presented. Based on these results, promising biological life support technologies for manned space missions have been selected by ESA either for their intrinsic ability and performance in effecting specific tasks for atmosphere-, water-, waste-management versus physico-chemical alternative and/or for longer-term application to a more ecological concept (CES) focusing ultimately on food production.
Actual status and plan for terrestrial and space testing of biological life support systems are presented focusing on the ``task specific'' decontamination technology of the Biological Air Filter (BAF), and on food reprocessing technologies from biodegradable wastes with the MELISSA microbial ecosystem.
