How to Use This Calculator

Enter the number of crew members to support.
Input daily O2 consumption and CO2 production rates per person.
Set the plant species and growing area dedicated to bioregenerative food and air recycling.
Review the percentage of oxygen, water, and food needs met by the bioregenerative system.
Supplement with stored consumables for the gap between bioregenerative output and crew requirements.
