Annotation: This paper aims to develop a scientifi cally grounded method for determining the key technical parameters of a vertical screw conveyor–specifi cally, throughput and the power requirement of the driving electric motor. These parameters depend on the density and porosity of the transported material, the screw’s geometric characteristics, and the gravitational fi eld at the transportation site. The study also explores potential design constraints when handling lunar regolith. To achieve this objective, the authors applied established equations for screw conveyor parameter calculations, fundamental principles of bulk material mechanics, key electrodynamic equations for asynchronous motors, and specifi c behavioral characteristics of bulk materials during vertical screw transport, which were also investigated experimentally. As a result, a novel method is proposed for calculating the technical specifi cations of a screw conveyor under lunar conditions, based on known geometric parameters, fi lling ratio, and electric motor characteristics. The study further examines the infl uence of the conveyor’s fi lling ratio on performance and identifi es geometric limitations imposed by the operational boundaries of the selected motor. Acceptable values for transport height, screw diameter, other geometric parameters, and achievable fi lling ratios for a given motor are determined. The study substantiates that vertical screw conveyors are the most promising solution for lunar regolith transport. These systems are compact, adaptable, capable of integration within tubes or underground installations, operate continuously, function autonomously, and can be powered by solar energy.

Key words: Moon, regolith, screw conveyor, electric motor, throughput, power

Annotation: Moon Village Association, together with Yuzhnoye State Design Offi ce, created and implemented the Mentorship Program “PromoMoon Initiative for Moon Village Generation in honor of Dr. Alexander Degtyarev ˮ. The main goal of the Program is to build the capacity of new participants in the space market. The Mentorship Program allows the winners of the competition to receive expert assessment through online B2B mentorship sessions provided by MVA members and specialists from Yuzhnoye State Design Offi ce. This year marks the 4th PromoMoon Initiative. 19 projects are presented by participants from 16 countries. Most of the projects are dedicated to the creation of lunar base infrastructure and technologies for extracting useful resources on the Moon. The main focus of the proposed projects is on the use of local resources, cost-eff ectiveness and reliability. Seven projects are dedicated to various residential module designs: with an infl atable chamber and high-strength shells; with small 3D-printed panels and their assembly in a module; modular habitats created and serviced by autonomous microrobots; modules using biomimetic principles of adaptation found in Earth’s natural systems. The modules are made of terrestrial materials, lunar regolith, and a building material based on radiation-absorbing fungi, as well as “PotatoCreteˮ material derived from potato raw materials. The Lunar-Based Solar Power Station with Microwave Power Transmission from a Satellite Orbiter was developed by the Lunar Energizers team, and the Lunar Regolith-Based ThermalEnergy Storage for Moon Village Generation, in the project of the same name. The Tochtli system for regolith extraction and processing was proposed by the Torres Orbital Mining team, the RegOne system for regolith extraction and transportation was proposed by the MoonAixperts e.V. team. Anodes for direct molten regolith electrolysis were developed by a team of Ukrainian scientists. The Sand to Green team developed a lunar agroforestry system. Two launch complexes, the Lunar Electrostatic Dust Removal Station, a lunar rescue sled and a centralized cloud platform with open access for storing, analyzing and exchanging lunar mission data were proposed.

Key words: lunar modules, local resources, extraction of useful resources
