Evidence basisMaterial data + process assumptions
ProgressionInterface and acceptance gates
Material input
Accept feedstock into a processing trade only with traceable composition, particle or physical characteristics, source uncertainty, contamination considerations, and intended use.
Handling path
Define excavation or collection assumptions, transfer interfaces, containment, dust or loss controls, throughput targets, maintenance access, and failure recovery.
Conversion assumption
State the physical or chemical conversion method, energy and consumable needs, expected yield, byproducts, uncertainty, and the test evidence required to support the model.
Storage node
Define storage form, capacity, environmental limits, contamination control, inventory accounting, inspection, and interfaces to downstream mission or construction systems.
Delivery route
Close the loop with packaging, transfer, timing, receiving interface, quality record, logistics constraints, and acceptance criteria at the next system boundary.
Program access
Scope the Program.
Processing Infrastructure is structured for technical partners, research groups, mission-assurance stakeholders, operators, and capital teams evaluating resource-processing systems.
