Are you doing or planning research related to control (removal) or generation of TRACE CONTAMINANTS in air or water? [Examples: removal by photocatalytic oxidation, removal by adsorption, removal by reactive plasma, generation by algae, etc.] If so, I would like to hear from you. I am beginning studies of trace contaminant control in closed and near-closed loop air and water systems for long-duration manned space missions, and would like to learn what others are doing in related areas. Through this letter I hope to make a few contacts and perhaps initiate some dialogue/discussion concerning various aspects of trace contaminant control: issues, theories, experiments, technologies, etc. Please respond with a brief summary of your work, perhaps a short bibliography, and how I might reach you. Electronic or postal mail is fine. Also, if you have comments or suggestions I'd appreciate hearing from you. Finally, please pass this letter on to anyone who might be interested but may not otherwise see it. Thank you for your interest. I would particularly encourage you to respond if you are studying adsorption of trace components, as this is an area upon which I am focusing at present. Dr. John E.

Thanks.

Are you doing or planning research *related* to removal, generation, or detection of TRACE COMPONENTS or CONTAMINANTS in air or water? [Examples: removal by adsorption, removal by reactive plasma, generation by algae, generation by offgassing, etc.] If so, I would like to hear from you. I am beginning studies of trace contaminant control in near- closed-loop air and water systems for long-duration manned space missions, and would like to learn what others are doing in related areas. Responses to this letter will assist me in forming a references database, and may provide a starting point for some dialogue/discussion concerning various aspects of trace contaminant control: issues, theories, experiments, innovations, technologies, etc. Electronic or postal mail responses are fine. Brief summaries and short bibliographies are welcome, as are any comments or suggestions. Please pass this letter on to anyone who might be interested but may not otherwise see it. Thank you for your interest. Dr. John E.
