ounts of water or binder, which are challenging to obtain or produce in situ on the Moon. Conversely, lunar soil sintering methods, such as microwave sintering [18], and dry
These energy intensive methods, which require heating large sections of the lunar surface with specialized equipment, are most often discussed in the context of microwave sintering and solar sintering
Fig. 4 (a) The microwaves heat the crucible and chamber walls which in turn sinter the sample; (b) Direct microwave sintering has the microwaves directly interacting with the regolith with the melt

The experimental design was based on the Taguchi method, where temperature, dwell time, and heating rate were regarded as the primary design factors.
The green bodies appeared gray, and became brown upon sintering. Previous work has reported that hematite (Fe2 O3) and magnesioferrite (MgFe2 O4) can be produced by the oxidation of olivine [a solid
