Chemical reactions Sabatier’s reaction When hydrogen combines with carbon dioxide at around 350 Celsius in the presence of alumina, ruthenium or nickel catalyst, it gives methane and water.
CO2 + 4 H2 → CH4 + H2O
This reaction can be used to produce water in empyreal.
CO2can be extracted from mars and the waste from the industrial torus where there is high levels of CO2
H2 can be obtained from electrolysis
The methane can be used as a fuel in industries.
GRAVITY
Empyreal has a torus based design because it has to rotate about its axis; when it rotates it creates artificial gravity. So the people inside would have to experience centripetal acceleration, we can say that based on the equation:- a=ω^2 r
In the above equation “a” is the …show more content…
Without gravity everything would be out of control and floating around. Without it space adaptation syndrome would occur for some people. Space adaptation syndrome is a typical something which is caused due to weightlessness. The human body gets used to the weightlessness and causes nausea, illusions and disorientation. Without gravity, our bones density may decrease over time.
Effects of pseudo gravity: Centrifugal force:-
Centrifugal force pushes things away from the axis of rotation. The levels of the gravity may be different according to the distance of the object from the center of rotation because of which our movements may seem awkward. The smaller the radius, the bigger the difference in their gravitational attraction, so if the radius is bigger, then the effect is decreased. The Coriolis …show more content…
So if a person moves away from the axis, he will experience a force trying to push or pull him. These forces can cause nausea and disorientation. However, even here the effect can be avoided by increasing the radius of the torus. Oxygen
For a long space journeys we need oxygen .So we are using oxygen leaf which gives use the way a real leaf gives use. This leaf is made up of chloroplasts that are suspended in a silk protein image credit: http://www.interiorsandsources.com/article-details/articleid/17901/title/product-spotlight-artificial-biological-leaf.aspx matrix. The chloroplasts are derived from plant cells, and the silk protein is extracted from natural silk fibers. Like the leaves of plants, the material requires only exposure to sunlight and a small amount of water to produce oxygen.
"Silk leaf is the first man made leaf". It's very light and it takes less energy and water to give
