Incinerate it at 600 or 800 Celsius; and recover the water; and distill the water if you are squeamish); and add the powder to your compost pile. Easy enough. :;):
A NASA study has determiend that wheatgrass burns nicely to make activated charcoal which is needed to filter the waste gases from the above process. Grow wheatgrass in hydroponics, transform into activated charcoal and then filter the gases emitted from the waste incineration.
No big deal.

Rather than going we stayed circling the earth and it took almost another decade to get commercial space flight going.

Boeing’s Starliner Finally (Finally) Launches Crewed Test Flight, Smoothly

I have been a critic of Bush junior but on the positive on it you now have 3 CEV Capsules, Elon Musk Space-X others who tried Bezos, Branson and a bunch of other Private Companies which will become more successful. The Chinese and their China program have not been allowed get ahead after the loss of Shuttle, India also has ambition. The original Bush vision has faded somewhat, he was fighting wars opening up multiple fronts and there was international politics. On a plus NASA and ESA got to launch the next great JWST despite all difficult new innovative design and cancellations of robots and telescopes the JWST is doing great and the original vision been modified replaced first by President Barack Obama's space policy then by President Donald Trump's "National Space Strategy" space policy and finally by President Joe Biden's preliminary space policy proposals, relations with Russia have become bad and sanctions put on since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The ISS and commercialization has allowed New Zealand to have its own rockets and it didn't even have a real space program.
A new election is coming so its possible with two of the same candidates running you will get more of the same, or will NASA see real changes?
since this thread was first posted there have been advances in Humanoid Robots, Nano-tech, the Private-sector, 3-d printing, Artifical Intelligence and a Rising China.

Our aim is to explore in a sustainable, affordable, and flexible manner. We believe the principles and roadmap set down in this document will stand the test of time. Its details will be subject to revision and expansion as new discoveries are made, new technologies are applied, and new challenges are met and overcome. This plan is guided by the Administration’s new space exploration policy, “A Renewed Spirit of Discovery: The President’s Vision for U.S. Space Exploration,” a copy of which is provided on the following pages.
