A lot of responses in this thread unnecessarily overcomplicate how (D) changes the meaning, so I'm going to be simple:
Meaning: the chances of a collision increase when both the amount of space debris and the number of satellites increase. That means we need both of them to be increasing. None of this "causal" crap
Nearly two tons of nuclear-reactor fuel have already been put into orbit around the Earth, and the chances of a collision involving such material increase greatly (C) as the amount of space debris and the number of satellites continue to rise -->conveys the meaning that the chance of a collision increases only when both the amount of debris and the number of satellites increase.
Nearly two tons of nuclear-reactor fuel have already been put into orbit around the Earth, and the chances of a collision involving such material increase greatly (D) with the continually increasing amount of space debris and the number of satellites -->conveys that only the amount of space debris needs to increase for the chance of a collision to increase.

Isn't as used for Comparisons ? If so, then here i am unable to find any comparison. Why is as used in correct answer choice then ? Can anyone please explain ?

By comparison, I am assuming you mean that as is used to depict in the same way. For example:
Peter loves his Dad, as his Dad loves him.
Another usage of as is to depict while/during the same time. For example:
They arrived as we were leaving.
