Grid size 2 x 2
Power consumption 1 MW
Power category Life Support
Outputs CO2

The CO2 Scrubber takes CO2 from the atmosphere and outputs it into pipes when powered. The output can be fed into an air reprocessor or tank, it requires an output to function, otherwise it immediately becomes blocked.

At rest, while charging, and in use, it uses 1 power per second.

Scrubbing[edit | edit source]

It stores 20 CO2, if the output is blocked. It scrubs ca. 6.5 CO2 per second from the atmosphere and delivers it through its output. As one person exhales ca. 3.87 CO2 per minute, ca. one CO2 scrubber is needed for every 100 people aboard a starship.
