The Aquamembrane-3 hardware consists of three separate and parallel systems to quantify the membrane's water flux and contamination rejection in microgravity, which are key parameters for a full water recovery system. Aquamembrane-3 tests Aquaporin Inside™ membranes for spacecraft use, a unique water filtration method that mimics fluid transport found in every living cell.
