I'm so glad stuff is happening there! That's
really cool that you're
setting
up a CO2/humidity scrubber, does that mean we'll be able to survive in a
bubble
if Omni needs to wall off from the rest of the world?
Well we'll need some oxygen as well but I suppose we can improvise
something to split water and just vent the hydrogen.
This is actually a regenerating CO2 scrubber like the ones on the space
shuttle, where you never have to replace any consumables, and it has a
compressor that is rated for 24/7 operation so yeah I don't see why it
couldn't sustain some humans for a while. Though 0% humidity is pretty bad
for humans but I guess we can add a humidifier.

Hi all.
I will be running an air compressor for 12 hours straight in the sudo/CCL
area of Omni this coming Tuesday from around noon until midnight.
I am not sure exactly how loud it will be but the compressor is inside a
somewhat sound-dampened box so hopefully it won't be too bad. I don't see
anyone on the CCL pandemic access calendar scheduled for that period.
This is a so-called regeneration cycle for a CO2/humidity scrubber which
is
needed to get it ready for use after it's
been sitting unused for quite a
while.
Let me know if anyone has a conflict and needs me to reschedule.
