OCR: 02 + Impurities Illustration courtesy Rockwell Int. Another route to oxygen by electrolysis Corporation of the lunar regolith is shown on this crode Electrolysis Cell card. This involves processing the Heat molten soil to release oxygen, iron, and sulation silicon. A slag which can be used for brick fabrication is also produced. The amount of mining required to produce Magma Layer --- each ton of oxygen is lo ver for this Molten Fe . Si -- route than for many other potential pro- Alloy Layer cesses. Much development work vill be required to take this chemistry from the research stage to that of a process. Ceramic Ingots
