[Water conditioning in extreme conditions].

Comparative analysis of different water conditioning technologies, i.e. supplementing desalted water with certain physiologically important minerals, has been especially concerned with determination of those methods and systems that will fit best the requirements to water processing and mineralization in pressurized habitable modules, spacecraft compartments specifically. It has been concluded that potable water mineralization units designed for these conditions should incorporate filters made of artificial granular materials and take advantage of the osmotic water mineralization technology.
