Static feed electrolysis technology has long been recognized as being important in meeting the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's requirements for life support within the Space Station Freedom and future, advanced missions. The static feed electrolysis technology makes it possible to very efficiently generate oxygen to sustain the crew, and hydrogen for the efficient and economical operation of other space systems. More recently, additional applications for the static feed electrolysis technology have been evaluated and tested. The authors summarize the results of those studies. The applications addressed are those involving energy storage, propulsion, extravehicular activity and other, specialized applications, such as providing support for experimentation and manufacturing. The environmental control and life support system application is included for comparison
