    Research output: NRELFact Sheet

    Abstract

    National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) has a longstanding sustainability program that revolves around energy and water efficiency as well as environmental protection. MSFC identified a problematic cooling loop with six separate compressor heat exchangers and a history of poor efficiency. The facility engineering team at MSFC partnered withFlozone Services, Incorporated to implement a comprehensive water treatment platform to improve the overall efficiency of the system.
