a Water use, b power requirement, and c payload mass accounting for all unit operations in the bio-ISRU for 2,3-BDO production using either biofilm or suspended cyanobacteria growth modes. Results are based on 10 tons of 2,3-BDO produced over 500 sols. Chemical ISRU (DRA 5.0 O2 only strategy) shown in gray. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
