Guidebook on Technologies of Environment

Transcription

Introduction
In Fukuoka Prefecture, exchanges of human resources, technology, and industries are moving forward in the environmental sector with mainly regions in Asia with which we have amicable relations (Jiangsu, China; Hanoi, Vietnam; Bangkok, Thailand; Delhi,
India).
In order to further progress with exchanges of environmental technologies and industries in the future based on networks that
Fukuoka Prefecture has built with local public bodies in partner regions, we have surveyed and organized the environmental technologies of each company that has a base in Fukuoka Prefecture possesses, and have created this guidebook as a PR material that introduces these companies to everyone within
and outside of Japan.
We hope that this guidebook is utilized broadly by everyone inside and outside of Japan,
that the environmental technologies that companies with a base in this prefecture possess
can be introduced to various Asian regions, and that these technologies can be of some help
in improving local environmental issues.

Approaches in the environmental sector in Fukuoka Prefecture
Example of Omuta City
■ Experience in overcoming environmental pollution
Fukuoka Prefecture has experience in being directly faced
with and overcoming serious pollution problems associated
with the development of industries during the period of rapid
economic growth. In response to the voices of residents asking
to prevent environmental pollution, residents, corporations and
the government came together as one body and made approaches. As a result of these approaches, a comfortable environment has now been brought back to life.
■ Current approaches – Comprehensive Environ-
In Omuta City, together with the prosperity of the coal industry, there was air pollution caused by
soot and smoke generated by factories and business sites, such as heavy and chemical industry kombinat due to amassment of factories such as for chemicals, machinery and non-ferrous metals. This was a
serious situation, where persons with health hazards came forward, such as due to water contamination
of the rivers and oceans caused by factory effluent. During such times, approaches were made by the
local region to eliminate environmental pollution, and environmental standards related to the air, rivers
and ocean came to be gradually achieved. Currently, Omuta is progressing with new city development
based on advanced environmental harmony.
Omuta City in the 1950s (Dense smoke emissions in the air) Omuta City today (Restored to clean, blue skies)
mental Vision
7 pillars in the Comprehensive Environmental Vision
We are living in an era where the perspective of the environment is sought after in every kind of situation, whether it be
our daily lives, business activities, or policy-planning by the
government. The times are changing from one where the environment and growth conflict with each other, to an era where
the perspective of sustainable social development where the
environment and growth are harmonized is emphasized.
With this kind of awareness, environmental policies are
being promoted based on formulating a “Comprehensive Environmental Vision” and establishing 7 pillars, in an aim to pass
down a Fukuoka Prefecture in which each resident can realize
physical and mental happiness.
■ Environmental cooperation with various Asian regions
In the future, such environmental cooperation will be promoted, and contributions will be made to environmental improvement in Asia.
■Contents: Waste processing, general environmental management such as conservation of the
water and air environment, and training related to
environmental education
Construction of a network for fostering human resources
Global Environmental Cooperation Projects
Using the networks that are built up through
training, environmental cooperation projects are
implemented with regions in Asia with which Fukuoka has amicable relations
[Examples]
■Technical assistance for construction of Fukuoka
Method (semi-aerobic landfill) waste disposal facility in Hanoi
In order to introduce the environment-friendly
Fukuoka Method waste disposal facility in Hanoi for Waste disposal facility in Hanoi
the first time, a memorandum specialized for cooperation between Fukuoka and Hanoi was concluded in August 2013, and cooperation
toward technical guidance related to constructing the waste disposal facility and its operation and maintenance after completion is being implemented.
Contribution to environmental improvement. Promotion of environmentrelated industries
By utilizing these networks that we have created through
such training, the prefecture is also moving forward with various environmental cooperation projects with regions in Asia
with which we have amicable relations.
■Targets: Officers engaged in environmental administration in China, Thailand, Vietnam, and India
Fostering of human resources
Concretely, “Training to Foster Human Resources for the
Global Environment” has been implemented since 2006, and
administrative officers engaged in environmental policies are
invited, mainly from regions with which Fukuoka has amicable
relations.
Construction of networks
In Fukuoka Prefecture, environmental technologies and
know-how that the prefecture has accumulated in the process
of overcoming environmental pollution is utilized in order to
contribute to the resolution of environmental problems in various Asian regions, and progress is being made with environmental cooperation with such regions.

Concrete examples of major environmental measures
■ Construction of a recycling-oriented society—research and development that aim for popularization of a recycling system
In order to construct a recycling-oriented society, it is necessary to resolve issues related to the resource recovery
system and market development, and to establish a new
recycling system in society. To do so, Fukuoka Prefecture
has established the Fukuoka Research Commercialization
Center for Recycling Systems in 2001. At this Center,
research and development by industry-academiagovernment, support for commercialization oriented toward
regional development, and communication of environmental and recycling information are carried out.
■ Ensuring a living environment where people can
and water environment
Research and development scheme
lead healthy and comfortable lives—conservation of the atmospheric
In Fukuoka Prefecture, in addition to various laws, further
strict environmental regulations were established based on
prefectural ordinances; exhaust gas and drainage are measured
and analyzed based on on-the-spot inspections at factories and
workplaces, and confirmations are made regarding the promotion of appropriate environmental conservation measures at
each workplace. Also, air and water are regularly monitored at
many points within the prefecture, and data from this is utilized to judge suitability of environmental standards and as
materials for assessment of environmental conservation measures. The Fukuoka Institute of Health and Environmental Sciences, which is a testing and research institute, plays an important role in this measurement analysis and monitoring.
↑ Collection of drainage in an on-the-spot
inspection at a workplace
↑ Measurement of exhaust stack gas at a workplace
↑ Measurement analysis by the Institute of
Health and Environmental Sciences
■ Construction of a low-carbon society—Promotion of the introduction of renewable energy
There are expectations for renewable energy to serve as a
pillar for diversification and decentralization of energy sources.
In Fukuoka Prefecture, efforts are made to take the initiative to
introduce renewable energy at facilities owned by the prefecture, and support is provided for the construction of a model for
local production for local consumption of energy by municipalities, in order to broaden the introduction of renewable
energy that makes use of the resources and characteristics of
the region in various areas within the prefecture. In addition,
efforts are also being made toward environmental development
for promotion of introduction of renewable energy, such as by
publishing basic information (amount of sunlight, etc.) necessary to examine the introduction of renewable energy. (http://

Friendly to the environment through “preventing agent for powdering of
slag” and “slag cooling facility” that was developed by making use of our
performance in steelmaking slag treatment in Japan.
Realizes safe slag treatment!
Making use of our ideas and technologies that were born from the iron-making process, we are expanding our
“environment and recycling business.” The “preventing agent for powdering of slag” and “slag cooling facility” that we
are introducing represent technologies that were developed by making use of our experience in business related to design, manufacturing, installation, operation, and maintenance of slag treatment facilities in the steelmaking process.
The “KAILEX” preventing agent for powdering of slag prevents powdering of reduction slag, and exhibits effects in
dust countermeasures. The slag cooling facility “ISC” can increase safety and environmental enhancement as compared
to landing treatment.

This preventing agent for powdering of slag suppresses powdering of slag that occurs in the steelmaking process in electric
furnaces, converter furnaces, etc. When slag is powdered, it
has an adverse effect on the environment, and also hinders effective use of slag. By using this preventing agent for powdering of slag, it is linked to “environmental improvement” as
well as “expansion of effective use of slag.”
“ISC” slag cooling facility
●Rapid cooling fracturing

The largest characteristic of ISC is that
slag in a melted state is discharged thinly
and broadly on to a steel plate tray (ISCBox), air cooling and water cooling are
carried out, and then the ISC-Box is tilted
after coagulation to excrete the slag. The
natural decay phenomenon of the slag cooling process is nurtured through forced cooling, and furthermore, fracturing
effects are heightened based on falling and impact from the ISC-Box.
●Increased environmental performance and safety
In terms of the environment, although water vapor is generated based on cooling in the ISC-Box, it is possible to
minimize generation of dust. With regard to safety, the water on the ISC-Box is vaporized, and there is no danger of
vapor explosion during slag discharge.
●Slag treatment technology is used at iron mills such as shaft furnace and electric furnace manufacturers.
●It is possible to utilize the technology that makes use of our abundant record in slag treatment as slag dust and safety
measures.

Based on our unique “Oil temperature decompression drying technology
(tempura method),” various organic waste is recycled into valuable resources
such as through conversion of sewage sludge to fuel and fortification of food
residue! Systematic technology that enables for uniform drying in a short
period of time.
The “oil temperature decompression drying technology (tempura method)” is unique patented technology that uses
waste cooking oil as an indirect heating medium to mix and heat organic waste with dewatered sewage sludge and food
waste, lower the boiling point by reducing the pressure inside the device to an atmospheric pressure of approximately
0.6, and vaporize the treated material at approximately 85°C to 110°C.
As a result of the water vaporizing, the input waste is reduced to approximately 1/5 to 1/3 its original amount, and the
water content falls to less than 5%. Although usage methods for the product material that underwent drying differ depending on the waste, the product material can be reused as valuable resources. In the case of sewage sludge, the product
can be used as fuel for mixed combustion at thermal power plants, and in the case of food waste, the product can be used
as feed and fertilizer.

“Oil temperature decompression drying technology

●Uniform drying is possible in short-term drying treatment
Since drying is carried out under reduced pressure using oil as a drying heating
medium, the oil and organic waste that is subject to treatment come in contact
evenly, and the water content of the product material after drying is “uniform”
everywhere.

The oil and raw material are
heated, and vaporization of water
starts.
In addition, by forcing the water to vaporize by reducing the pressure, highly-efficient and
rapid vaporization is possible.
The water on the surface of the raw
material is vaporized, and the water in the
core of the raw material is further
vaporized upon decompressing

Drying is complete at a temperature of approximately 100°
(Vacuum of approximately 700mmHg)
↑Outline of oil temperature decompression drying method
technology
●Organic waste is reproduced into valuable resources and effectively used
Since drying is carrying out based on “frying” using waste cooking oil, a certain amount of waste cooking
is contained in the product material after processing. This gives new added value to the product material
that is not possible with normal drying technology, enabling for valuable sale and reuse.
For example, in the case of sewage sludge, the oil
that is contained due to processing increases the
caloric value, and becomes product material with an
average particle radius of approximately 1mm, with
a high lower heating value (about 25Mj/kg) that is
approximately the same as that of coal. This can
then be effectively used in fuel for mixed combustion at thermal power stations.
In addition, in the case of food waste, most of the
organic nutrients are recovered and sterilization is
also carried out at the same time, enabling for product material with high added value as feed and fertilizer to be produced.

Screw-type continuous low-temperature drying device (SHTS) does not clog,
even substances with strong adhesiveness!
A dryer that enables for 24-hour, continuous operation of low-temperature
drying.
Our company’s “continuous low-temperature drying device (SHTS)" is a screw-type dryer that can dry even highly adhesive, fixative, and sticky industrial slurry and food waste sludge without clogging. We propose this dryer to resolve
problems that people at sites who have difficulty in drying due to “adhesion, stickiness, and clogging” in the recycling
process of waste materials, drying process, manufacturing process, etc.
Low-temperature drying is particularly effective for processing food products and residue that have components that
change at high temperatures. Due to 24-hour continued drying, it is also linked to an increase in production efficiency.
In addition, by using surplus steam, it is possible to curb running costs.
Screw-type continuous low-temperature drying device (SHTS)
●Reliably dries various industrial slurries and food waste sludge
By being creative in the shape of the blades, we have developed a screw-type dryer that
does not clog, regardless of how adhesive, fixative, or viscous the material is, as the
blades rotate while peeling away the materials that have adhered onto them.
Reliable drying in accordance with the properties of each material is possible, from solid
wood matter to sludge, and various industrial slurries to food waste sludge are also supported.
●Prevents component change through low-temperature drying
Low-temperature drying is particularly effective in processing food products and residue, of which the components change at high temperatures.
It is possible to prevent component change of materials targeted for drying, and to
significantly broaden their effective utilization after drying.
↑Blades that were developed with ingenuity into a shape

●Increased production efficiency based on 24-hour continuous operation
In addition to being a continuous-type, and not a batch-type dryer, it is possible to
dry materials without clogging, even if they are very adhesive, and 24-hour continuous operation is possible.
Bottlenecks do not occur with this dryer, contributing to increased production efficiency.
↑Screw-type continuous low-temperature drying device (SHTS)
●In Japan, this device is used for sludge treatment at chemical plants, and for sludge and food residue at food processing

Koushin Industry Inc.
Realization of housing demolition consisting of 100% recycling, where no waste
is generated at all.
Even in concentrated residential areas, careful consideration is given to the
surroundings, and we have a high reputation among many of our customers for
satisfaction that exceeds costs.
Our company mainly carries out demolition of homes, sorting and recycling of construction waste generated from
demolition (wood chips, glass chips, concrete chips, plaster chips, etc.), recycling of other ceramic chips, etc. generated
at factories, and processing of rubble. The biggest difference between us and other demolition companies is that we
eliminate landfilling, which was linked to an increase in disposal costs, sort the recovered waste, and recycle it into
products that can be sold at value. In principle, all of the waste that is generated at demolition sites is brought back to
our plant, and reborn into new raw materials for products. We are making approaches toward encouraging awarenessraising, and originality and ingenuity among our employees, such as by selecting an “Eco Slogan Award” within our
company.

Kyushumetal Industry Co., Ltd.
Approaches have been made to materials recycling of shredder dust, achieving
100% recycling of end-of-life vehicles!
In particular, we have strength in sorting techniques of non-ferrous metals.
This company is a company that recycles metal wastes, mainly of automobiles. The shredder dust that is generated after
crushing metal waste is recycled into cement material, but when a minute amount of metal becomes mixed in, it becomes difficult to use this as cement material. In addition, since it is possible that metals with high value such as precious metals, rare metals, copper, etc. can be contained in the metal that mixes into the dust, technology that recovers
metal from dust has been sought after. Our company can recycle high-value precious metals, rare metals, copper, etc.
from dust at a high recovery rate based on various recycling techniques that we have developed on our own.
“Recycling of shredder dust”
●Shredder plant with one of the foremost processing capacities
in Japan
Kyushumetal Industry owns multiple recycling facilities, including a 2000
-horsepower shredder plant, for producing metal scraps. With an annual
processing capacity of end-of-life vehicles is 100,000 vehicles, and we
have one of Japan’s leading end-of-life vehicle processing capacities.
With regard to ferrous and nonferrous scraps, we are making active approaches toward increasing their added value as recycled products.
↑2000-horsepower shredder plant owned by Kyushumetal Industry
●Strength in sorting techniques of nonferrous metals
We are also vigorously moving forward with recovering various valuable
metals from not only shredders of metal wastes, but the shredder dust that
is discharged from the shredders as well. The shredder dust of metal waste
contains many resources of high value, including valuable metals such as
platinum and palladium, as well as copper and rare metals. Our company
has succeeded in achieving a high recovery rate of these metals based on a
unique sorting process that combines a sorter/sensing separator, such as an
eddy current separator or specific gravity sorter, with hand-sorting, and we
have realized a 100% recycling rate of automobiles. Currently, we are
planning on introducing the latest sorting equipment to actively promote
thorough recovery of resources from urban mines and domestic recycling
in Japan in the future.

●We recycling various metal wastes such as end-of-life vehicles and household waste, and conduct materials recycling.
●We are progressing with approaches oriented toward appropriate treatment and recycling in emerging countries as well.

Recycling process where nickel compounds can be obtained at a high recovery
rate from electroless nickel plating waste solution established!
Recovery of phosphorous fertilizer material from waste solution also being
reviewed for practical use.
Otani Chemical Industries Co., Ltd. is a company where recycling of rare metals such as nickel and noble metals is one
of the main businesses. Since 2009, we have received support from the Fukuoka Research Commercialization Center
for Recycling Systems, and have progressed with research and development of highly-efficient nickel recovery methods
from electroless nickel plating waste solution, together with Kansai University. In general, the recovery rate of metals
extracted through a single operation based on the solvent extraction method for metal waste solution is 30 to 80%, but
the extraction material that our company has succeeded in developing extracts nickel at a rate of more than 98% in a
single operation, enabling for highly-efficient recovery in a short period of time. Our company is also carrying out recovery of phosphorous compounds in waste solution, and is reviewing its use as fertilizer material.
“Nickel recycling from electroless nickel plating waste solution”
●High recovery rate in a single extraction process
Electroless nickel plating has the characteristic of enabling for uniform film
pressure using technology where plating processing onto non-conductors is
possible, and is used in a broad array of sectors such as electric and electronic equipment, automobile industry, and precision machinery. Since
nickel, which is a rare metal, is contained in the waste solution that is generated, highly-efficient recycling has been sought after. By using the “nickel
extracting agent” that our company developed jointly with Kansai University, it is possible to obtain nickel from waste solution at a high recovery rate
of more than 98% based on a single extraction process. This technology is
patented as “Method for recovering nickel from electroless nickel plating
waste solution, and nickel ion extracting material used in this method (Patent
No. 5360483).”
●Fertilizer material is obtained from waste solution after nickel
recovery
During electroless nickel plating, phosphorous compounds are used as a
component for reducing nickel ions, and thus, a large amount of phosphorous
compounds is contained in waste solution. These compounds are useful as
fertilizer material, and if it is possible to reduce the content of hazardous
heavy metals, it is possible to reuse the phosphorous compounds that were
recovered after plating waste solution treatment as fertilizer. The key points
of our company’s nickel recycling are that it has a high nickel recovery rate,
and that the phosphorous compounds recovered from waste solution can be
used as raw materials for fertilizer. Currently, approaches oriented toward
practical use are being promoted.

On-site processing of any kind of organic matter possible with the “Carbo XII” mobile pyrolysis carbonization device that can carbonize and recycle in a
short period of time and at low costs!
Technology that is environmentally-friendly, as a bag filter is not required and
soot dust is not generated.
The mobile pyrolysis carbonization device “Carbo X-11” is an all-in-one facility where the incidental facilities necessary for carbonization are all set on a trailer. Since it is possible to move this entire facility, carbonization anywhere, on
site, is possible.
In addition to carrying out heating using the “heat channel structure” that we have developed, and being able to reduce
the processing time and cost based on highly-efficient operation, it is possible to curb manufacturing costs due to a simple structure. Also, based on circulated conversion of waste to fuel, and effectively using the dry distillation gas that is
generated during carbonization, energy-saving is realized.
Mobile pyrolysis carbonization device “Carbo X-ii”
●Carbonization and recycling of any kind of organic matter in a short period of time and at low costs
Based on the carbonization chamber that is of a “heat channel structure” that we have
developed for highly efficient carbonization, efficient maintenance of the heating/
carbonization temperature and cooling become possible, and the process of drying, pyrolysis, carbonization and cooling is completed in 3 to 4 hours, reducing the processing
time and costs. In conjunction with this, based on the “dry distillation gas control device” that converts dry distillation gas that is generated during carbonization to fuel,
energy is saved by using the dry distillation gas as supplementary fuel. Also, based on
super airtightness of the carbonization chamber and completely oxygen free carbonization, it is possible to carbonize and recycle any kind of organic matter.
●Carbonization is possible on-site
Since this is a mobile all-in-one facility, it is possible to carbonize
generated organic waste and biomass on site. By processing them onsite, there are no costs in transporting the organic waste and biomass,
and in addition, it is possible to implement processing of organic
waste for which on-site processing is effective in a smooth manner,
such as processing of domestic animal infectious diseases, processing
of disaster waste, processing of infectious medical waste and processing of exterminated living organisms such as alien organisms.

Making use of molding technology for plaster, we have developed plaster
ceramic that uses incinerated ash from sewage sludge and coal ash from power
plants!
Effective for recycling of toxic waste, as there is almost no elution of heavy
metals
Since coal ash generated from power plants and sludge incineration ash derived from sewage treatment plants contain
heavy metals and are highly toxic, large amounts of costs of incurred in their processing. As a method for effectively
utilizing such waste, our company has developed plaster ceramic using sewage sludge incineration ash, based on joint
research with the Fukuoka Research Commercialization Center for Recycling Systems. By mixing lime hydrate, which
is a main component of plaster, and incineration ash, which is a waste product, and sending it through a high-pressure
press, we have succeeded in obtaining compact that can be used as construction material. Even if the content of incineration ash is increased to 50%, humidity conditioning, sterilization, and odor eliminating actions, which are characteristic functions of plaster, are maintained, and there are expectations for waste as recycled construction materials that can
be used effectively.
“Recycled building materials using incineration ashes from sewage sludge,
etc.”
●It is possible to increase the content of incineration ash by ultrahigh-pressure vacuum press molding
Tagawa Sangyo is manufacturing plaster ceramic using incineration ash, by making use of our
own technology where high-pressure molding of plaster is carried out. For this recycled building
material, which is manufactured by mixing lime hydrate, which is raw material for plaster, and
incineration ash, and pressing it using a large, special pressing machine, even if the amount of
incineration ash is increased to 50%, it is possible to obtain building materials of a strength that is
not a problem in terms of practical use. Since incineration ash can be utilized in large quantities,
as more recycled building material is used, the more it is connected to reduction of
toxic waste.
↑ Ultrahigh-pressure vacuum pressing machine owned by our
company. By using this device, recycled building materials
using processed ashes and “LIMIX,” which is plaster compact,
is manufactured.
●Almost no elution of heavy metals
Since various heavy metals are contained in incineration ash, it is regarded as hazardous waste, requiring a large amount of processing costs. When this is used as recycled building materials, it is possible to significantly reduce the amount of incineration ash, which had generated expensive processing costs, and since there is almost no elution of heavy metals as they are turned into
building material, it is possible to eliminate the problem of heavy metal contamination in
soil and groundwater. Of course, they can be used with ease of mind indoors and in offices as well.
●The intrinsic functions of plaster remain as is
The humidity conditioning, sterilization, and odor eliminating actions of plaster, which
are its characteristic functions, remain as is even after they are turned into recycled
building materials. These building materials are adapted even to users who require a
living space that makes use of the intrinsic functions of plaster. Plaster ceramic that
makes use of incineration ash is also used for the office walls of our company.
↑ Plaster ceramic that uses incineration ash. Used on
the wall surfaces of our office.
●Plaster is highly-functional construction material, and needs for buildings that use plaster have been increasing, mainly
in advanced countries that require better living environments. Even recycled building materials that contain a mix of
approximately 50% of processed ashes exhibit the high humidity conditioning, sterilization, and odor eliminating actions of plaster. Recycled building materials represent environmentally-compatible plaster technology that can contribute to the problem of processing hazardous waste.

Large track record of operation and maintenance of final disposal sites, starting
with Fukuoka City!
Implementing training and consulting in emerging countries by making use of
high technological strength. Strength in licensing of technology that is suited to
local needs.
The sophistication of facilities at final waste disposal sites is outstanding, and facility standards based on a semi-aerobic structure has come to be established. However, without appropriate operation and maintenance of final disposal sites, it is not possible to make use of functions to the fullest.
This company has made its way as a company that supports public administration, centering on operation and maintenance
and consulting operations at general final waste disposal sites. As we approach our 50th anniversary, we have established a
track record of continued operation and maintenance of final waste disposal sites in Fukuoka City, and based on the operation
and maintenance technology of final disposal sites that we have accumulated, we have established appropriate operation and
maintenance methods for final disposal sites. Our operation and maintenance technology is utilized throughout Japan. We
have progressed with licensing operations overseas, and are greatly contributing to environmental conservation.

“Operation/maintenance and consulting for final waste
disposal sites”
●We possess unique operation and maintenance technology
related to semi-aerobic final disposal sites
“Semi-aerobic final disposal sites” represent technology where pipes
are passed through the inside of landfill sites, making them favorable
for taking in outside air, and where waste is fragmented aerobically
based on the movement of microorganisms and early stabilization is
promoted. It is adopted in many disposal sites throughout Japan.
We devised the
FSUP construction
method that balances
both functions and
construction
efficiency, and are
implementing

In order to realize this function, it is important not only to construct a
“container” for disposal sites, but to implement continuous design and
construction management to create a structure where a self-cleaning
mechanism based on microorganisms is maintained when landfilling waste. We have the technology to construct landfills and to
construct gas collection facilities, as well as information management systems that manage these in a uniform manner, making it
possible to construct an early stabilization structure and to
carry out management for long periods of time. The concept
is “ construction of facilities do not end until the final disposal
site is closed.”
●Operation and maintenance technology of disposal
sites that correspond to local needs
As there are numerous countries where final disposal sites are
not appropriately operated and maintained, in order to improve the local environment, it is essential to upgrade the
level of management technology of final disposal sites. Our

operation and maintenance of final disposal sites in 8 countries up to now, as part of JICA projects. As the materials and
human resources that can be used are limited, we propose appropriate construction methods that utilize locally-available materials.
●Our technology is utilized in operation and maintenance of final waste disposal sites in Japan.
●There are still many countries where appropriate operation and maintenance of final waste disposal sites have not progress. In relation to these countries, it is possible to introduce optimal operation and maintenance technology that is
adapted to local needs.

Tamatech Co., Ltd.
Movable mobile recycling and crushing plant vehicle!
Intermediate processing is carried out at sites where waste is generated, and
recycled to reproduced items such as subbase material on the spot!
The mobile recycling and crushing plant vehicle is driven to sites where concrete waste, asphalt waste, etc. are accumulated, such as sites where buildings are torn down, and recycling is implemented on site. By crushing concrete waste,
etc. at the site where waste is generated, it is possible to recycle this waste into subbase material, etc.
In addition having obtained mobile intermediate processing business permits from multiple local public bodies, we
have an actual record of delivering a total of 45 of these machines to industrial waste service companies throughout Japan.
“Mobile recycling and crushing plant vehicles”
●Mobility where they can be driven to sites where waste is
generated
Since the crushing machine is of a self-propelled type that is built
onto a truck, it can move quickly along general roads. It is driven
to sites where construction waste, such as those that are generated
at construction sites, including raw concrete waste, concrete mass,
solid rock, is generated, and recycling is possible with the crushing
plant equipped on the truck. Input into the hopper is implemented
based on a power shovel of a 0.4m3 class.
●After crushing, waste is recycled into base course material on
site.
↑ 10t truck “TA50-2”
As this is a 10t special truck, it can be easily driven on general roads and
within work sites. Maximum processing capacity: 30t/hour
It is possible to adjust the grain size of recycled products after crushing between 0 to 40mm.
When base course material and asphalt are processed simultaneously, it is possible to use it as is
as subbase material. Recycling of waste is possible on site, without having to move it from the
site where it is generated.
●Lineup according to processing amount
It is possible to select from mobile recycling and crushing plant vehicles of high mobility and
work efficiency in accordance with the processing amount, such as a 4t truck, 10t truck, trailer,
etc. We have developed a method for installing a recycling and crushing plant onto vehicles,
taking into consideration the characteristics of trucks and properties of the loading platform, and
by making use of the know-how that we have accumulated in the transportation business, which
is our main business. We have also acquired patents.

Local circulation of food waste realized!
“Merry’s System” local circulation service that combines both “the
environment and the economy”
Also expanding in Asia, such as through approaches toward experimental
proof of this system in China, etc.
Our company’s “Merry’s System” is a local circulation service for food waste, etc. that realizes a small-scale, distributed resource circulation system that is space-saving and cost-saving. We have developed this service in an aim to construct a smalls-scale, distributed resource circulation system in regions where costs for waste treatment are relatively
high, such as where there are small-scale local public bodies and minor islands, using composting technology of food
residue fermentation and cracking unit that has been installed in more than 400 locations throughout Japan as the core.
We provide local circulation services that are optimal for regional characteristics, by combining various technologies,
rather than being limited to our own technology. In China, we have made approaches toward a model business where
experimental proof of this system is carried out, and are planning on expanding in other Asian regions.
Local circulation service “Merry’s System”
●Unique and advanced composting technology
Food residue, etc. is biodegraded rapidly without generating any foul odors at the
occurrence site using a food residue fermentation and cracking unit, and is reduced to
approximately 1/20 its original amount. This is recovered at a frequency of approximately once every 6 months, after which secondary and tertiary fermentation are carried out using facilities at our company’s recycling center, and turned into com↑Food residue fermentation cracking unit and disassembly of

We have succeeded in being the only company in the world to commercialize
paper diaper materials recycling.
We have been receiving an increasing number of inquiries from various places
as a trump card for the “elderly welfare care society” that is approaching as
well as protection of forest resources.
In our company’s recycling of paper diapers, we are involved in recycling used paper diapers collected from mainly
hospitals and welfare facilities (offices), as a business that does not exist anywhere else in the world. In addition, we
coordinate with some local public bodies to recycle used paper diapers generated from households. By developing technologies and mechanisms for effectively using what used to be incinerated and processed up to now as pulp resources
instead, jointly with the Fukuoka Research Commercialization Center for Recycling Systems, we are able to respond to
the problems of the aging society, and not only recycling.
Paper diaper recycling business
●Simultaneously supports the problems of the aging welfare society and global environmental problems
We have presented to society the fact that it is possible to respond simultaneously to the problem of protecting forest resources (global environmental
problem), which is a worldwide problem, as well as the increase in the number of elderly people and enhancement of welfare in Japan (aging welfare
society problem). Through processing and recycling paper diapers, which are
essential to the aging welfare society, we are contributing to the formulation
of a recycling-based society.

agent is realized.
Starting in 2011, we will be the first to start recycling of paper diapers from households in the
nation at Oki Town in Fukuoka Prefecture.
●Success in reducing CO2 output based on “anti-incineration” of paper diapers
Currently, used paper diapers are mostly incinerated, but in addition to this placing enormous burdens on incinerators due to a large amount of paper, valuable pulp resources are burned.
Our company realizes recycling based on water solubilization, rather than incineration, and have
succeeded in securing pulp resources as well as reducing CO 2 emissions by approximately 40%.

“MC Construction Method” is sludge dehydration technology that has small
initial costs and running costs, and that can be transported and operated easily.
By introducing "Eco Pouch" that we developed, this technology realizes
significant cost reductions as compared to mechanical dehydration equipment.
“MC Construction Method” is a one-stop, on-site treatment system for sewage and sludge that is specialized for smallscale business sites, and is comprised of transportable sedimentation/separation equipment, "Eco Pouch", which is a
flexible container bag that can be dehydrated, and flocculent, all of which has been developed by our company. This
technology was also selected as a "New Partnership Program" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in 2009.
It is also registered in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS (New Technology Information System), and there are expectations for its use in water quality purification and dredging sites in closed water areas
(lakes and ponds), as a measure against muddy waters that arise at construction and civil engineering sites where both
budget and space are limited. In addition, there have been an increasing number of inquiries regarding "Eco Pouch" after the nuclear plant accident, from regions that are concerned about treatment of contaminated water.
“MC (Mesh Cut) Construction Method”
●Uses “Eco Pouch” and the flocculent “Floccman” that we have developed
By using our own flocculent, it is possible to flocculate and precipitate particles inside
muddy water in a short period of time. It is also highly safe and has no impact on the natural
environment. “Eco Pouch” enables for efficient dehydration based on a fiber with an infinite
number of small holes (mesh) and a special donut-like structure. In addition, since this structure is strong, long-term storage as a flexible container bag is also possible.
●Energy-saving and easy movement. Significant reduction of sludge treatment
costs
What is necessary on-site is only sludge reaction equipment that makes muddy water react
with the flocculent (flocculent is added and agitated) and the “Eco Pouch”, which dehydrates
sediment immediately. Utilizing only a small amount of power, transportation is possible by
simply using a 2t truck. In addition, since dehydration (volume reduction) is completed on
site, it is possible to reduce sludge treatment costs.

of the Zenjokyo!
Wastewater treatment system that achieves compact size, advanced treatment,
and energy-saving!
The phosphorous in drainage water significantly worsens water environments, such as by eutrophicating closed water areas
and causing red tide. Appropriate treatment is strongly desired for phosphorous, which is considered as being contained in
great amounts in human sewage from households. However, the majority of traditional phosphorous removal systems are oriented toward large processing facilities, and there were not many compact and low-maintenance systems that were adapted to
household wastewater treatment systems. Fuji Clean Co., Ltd. has succeeded in developing phosphorous removal equipment
for household septic tanks that applies the iron electrolysis process. The high-performance wastewater treatment system CRX,
which incorporates this equipment, can eliminate more than 80% of phosphorous in drainage, and has received numerous
awards, such as the Environment Minister’s Award at the 31st Environment Awards. We have progressed with in-house development of various kinds of FRP wastewater treatment systems and blowers, and are making vigorous approaches toward
making our systems compact, energy-saving, and low-cost.

fiber manufacturing is a filtration device that is filled with fibrous filter media. Since the porosity of the filter media
layer is large, a high filtration speed is possible, and as the device is compact, a small installation area is also enabled.
This technology has obtained a Construction Technology Review and Certification Certificate from the Japan Institute
of Wastewater Engineering and Technology in March 2005, and is used in dead end filtration at sewage treatment
plants, industrial water filtration, and tertiary treatment filtration after biological treatment. Up to now, we have delivered this device to may private-sector and government clients.
“High-speed fibrous filtration device (Marimo)”
●3 to 6 times the filtration speed of rapid filtration systems
Since the porosity of the filter material layer is large, treatment at a speed of more than 1,000
m/day is possible, at a filtration speed that is 3 to 6 times faster than that of conventional rapid
filtration systems. In addition, treatment of suspended solids (SS) inside the filtered water is
possible in an equal or surpassing manner as conventional rapid filtration methods.
↑Columnar fibrous filter media that takes filterability, cleaning performance, and manufacturing performance into consideration
●Space-saving and low maintenance
Since the filtration speed is fast, the filtration area is reduced, and an installation space of 1/2
that of that used for the rapid filtration method is possible.
As a cleaning system that uses water and air is used, the amount of cleaning water that is used
is small, and compared to replacement of sand for rapid filtration methods, little maintenance
and low costs are incurred.

Fulvic acid, which exhibits large effects in sludge elimination and soil.
improvement, is blended into Bacillus subtilis purification material to form the
more powerful “Eco Bio Block”!
Attention is being gathered on water purification blocks that are fast-acting
and persistent.
Using Bacillus subtilis, which is known to have large effects in water purification, we have developed “Eco Bio Block”
which incorporates Bacillus subtilis into materials, and is highly recognized both inside and outside of Japan.
In an aim to further improve performance, we have focused on fluvic acid as a water purification material that is more
fast-acting. Although a method to manufacture fluvic acid in a stable manner has not yet been found and it is a material
that is difficult to produce in large quantities, we have established a manufacturing method for fluvic acid using waste
materials such as wood chips. In April 2014, we are planning on starting mass production of fluvic acid, and we will
start selling “Eco Bio Block” that is newly born and that contains fluvic acid. Even in short-term tests conducted in the
Ariake Sea, high sludge dissolution effects have been confirmed, and there are large expectations towards improvement
of water quality.

and persistent
→ Product lineup
(excerpt).
Development of a
new plastic bag type
The newly reborn “Eco Bio Block” contains Bacillus subtilis and fluvic acid. Since
Bacillus subtilis repeatedly proliferates underwater and gradually dissolves organic
substances in the water, it exhibits effects over a long period of time. Fluvic acid is
activated based on sunlight, and creates active species known as hydroxyl radicals
from oxygen in the water. These active species are extremely effective in dissolving organic compounds, which enable for high-speed purification of water. By
combining Bacillus subtilis with fluvic acid, we have created the “Eco Bio Block”
that is both fast-acting and persistent.

●Fluvic acid can be produced in a stable manner
Based on our company’s research results, we have succeeded in being the first in the
world to produce fluvic acid with confirmed efficacy in a stable manner, using waste
materials such as wood chips. We are planning on starting mass production of fluvic acid
starting in April 2014, in aiming towards commercialization of the “Eco Bio Block” that
contains fluvic acid.
●Effective in relation to soil that is contaminated with heavy metals
Fluvic acid possesses a “chelate action” that makes it bond strongly with heavy metals
such as arsenic and mercury. When “Eco Bio Block” that contains fluvic acid is mixed
into soil, it becomes possible to control the absorption of heavy metals by plants based on
the chelate action, as well as prevent elution of heavy metals into groundwater, contributing to the safety and security of water and vegetables.
↑ Example of installation of Eco Bio Block (Malaysia)
●After announcing our new product, we received many inquiries from local public bodies and corporations that are troubled over water treatment, as well as fish workers in the aquaculture industry. In addition, since by incorporating fluvic
acid materials into soil it is possible to control absorption of heavy metals by vegetation, there are expectations for use
of this product as a fertilizer/soil improving agent; it represents technology that is gaining attention among agricultural
corporations, etc. as well.
●We have a track record of introducing our product overseas, such as in China, Malaysia, and India, and are contributing
to water purification in various countries. In India, our product has received certification from the government as a standard.

ceramics.
Simple and low-cost equipment that enables for semipermanent continuation of
the purification performance of ceramics.
Gaining attention as purification technology that can aid the world’s water
shortage!
As a company that originally started in the janitorial business, this company is currently examining diversification and
overseas expansion of its business. One of our new businesses is the “Rainwater Purifier” that is being introduced at this
time.
We have focused on steatite ceramics, which possess the capability of adsorbing suspended particulates in rainwater as
well as of neutralizing acid water, and have developed a rainwater purifier that uses this ceramic. Using ceramic, which
is not toxic to living organisms, it is possible to obtain safe water since chemicals, etc. are not used at all in purification.
Since the equipment is extremely simple, introduction costs are also low, maintenance is simple, and it can be wellreceived in emerging countries with serious water shortage.
“Steatite Ceramic Rainwater Purifier”
●Semipermanent continuation of high purification capacity
The ions contained in steatite ceramic adsorb suspended particulates in
rainwater, and make the water clean. Ceramic also has a neutralizing
function, and it is possible to neutralize acidic rainwater while eliminating suspended matter.
Suspended matter that has adhered to the steatite ceramic can be easily
eliminated based on washing with water, and it is possible to regenerate
the purification capacity of rainwater. Since the rainwater purification
capacity of steatite ceramic continues semipermanently, additional running costs are also low.
↑ Rainwater before purification and rainwater after purification
using ceramic. Clean water where floating substances have been
eliminated is obtained.
●Possible to create safe and sound water at low costs
The steatite ceramic used in the rainwater purifier uses remnants produced in ceramics factories. As a result, the cost of primary materials is
extremely low, enabling for rainwater purification at low costs. The
cleanliness of water purified using steatite ceramic is high, and since it
is possible to make acidic rainwater neutral based on the effects of the
ceramic, it is not necessary to use any additional chemicals, enabling
for safe water to be created at low costs. Maintenance consists only of
rinsing off debris that has adhered to the
steatite ceramic, and is extremely simple. → Actual installation of rainwater purifier
●In inland areas where there is serious water shortage and in countries with vulnerable water infrastructures, there is believed to be a high need for this technology. Since the equipment itself is compact and low-cost, it is a product that can
be broadly received even in emerging countries.
●This technology has generated a great amount of interest overseas, as exemplified by inquiries from China and Vietnam.

Water quality conservation technology “Lake Controller” that possesses the
functions of supply of oxygen to deep parts of lakes, measures against bluegreen algae, and discharge of deep water. Realizes energy-saving without
requiring large-scale engineering works.
The idea of “securing an environment (water) that can be left for the future and creating technology that does not require
much energy” became connected to the realization of compact lake water quality conservation technology that is superior in energy-saving as compared to the past and that can combat both eutrophication and blue-green algae. Our company's "Lake Controller" is technology that is also registered in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and
Tourism's NETIS (New Technology Information System) as technology that prevents eutrophication in dam lakes, etc.,
and that kills blue-green algae. There are examples of this technology being introduced at dam lakes, etc. in Japan, and
there are expectations for this to be low-cost and easily-installable water quality conservation technology at lakes both
inside and outside of Japan where eutrophication is a problem.
“Lake Controller”
●Possesses the 3 functions of deep-layer aeration, countermeasures
against blue-green algae, and discharge of deep water
Eutrophication is prevented by pumping deep water, and sending water
that contains dissolved oxygen to the deep layer using a microbubble
generation nozzle. In addition, it is possible to kill and dissolve bluegreen algae by sucking in the blue-green algae on the surface layer and
sending it to the deep layer. Material balance is also improved by discharging deep water that contains nutrients in abundant amounts.

Low-cost and space-saving food wastewater treatment device “N-UASB”
implements an efficient anaerobic drainage treatment process that utilizes
granule bacteria.
The methane gas that is produced can be used as boiler fuel inside the treatment
device.
Nishihara Neo Co., Ltd. has progressed with the wastewater treatment business such as wastewater treatment systems
and sewage treatment, with making “water,” which is essential for people to live, clean as its corporate mission. We
manufacture and sell “N-UASB” anaerobic discharge treatment equipment that uses granule bacteria, as equipment for
treating organic drainage that is discharged from food factories. This equipment differs from the activated sludge process in that the equipment is extremely compact since bacterial can be densified, and operation at electricity charges of
approximately 1/5 those of the aerobic treatment method is possible. The methane gas that is produced based on processing organic matter can be used as boiler fuel for the equipment, thus reducing fuel costs. This equipment has already
been introduced in food factories, etc., and has been highly appraised.
High-speed, ultrahigh load anaerobic drainage treatment equipment “N-UASB”
●High-speed processing of organic drainage is possible in a limited space
The granule bacteria that carry out drainage processing in the N-UASB system is bacteria that is capable of densifying.
Compared to the activated sludge method, high-concentration drainage can also be treated, enabling for shortening of
the treatment time. Since densification is possible, the reaction tank space is compact, taking up 1/10 of that used in
the activated sludge method.
●Low-cost operation is possible
Since the bacteria has activity even in anaerobic conditions, it is not necessary to supply oxygen such as by using a
blower, and power costs can be cut. Since the amount of sludge that is generated is also small, it is possible to reduce
sludge treatment costs.

We uniquely developed next-generation membrane separation “hole diffusion”
technology. New membrane separation technology that replaces filtration,
characterized by “non-clogging” and “no need for filtration pressure.”
We provide maintenance-saving and energy-saving membrane separation
technology!
Our hole diffusion technology that we developed uniquely is an efficient membrane separation method that uses the
thermal motion of particles (Brownian motion) and the conductance separation effects that occur inside the flow channel, and has obtained an international patent. The hole diffusion separation membrane that is used in separation technology has the characteristics of “no clogging” and “no need for filtration pressure.” It consists of a flat membrane made of
pure cellulose, and a porous multi-layered structure. In addition, as adjustments between an average pore diameter of 5
to 1,500nm are possible, it is possible to apply this to various uses, from solid-liquid separation to elimination of viruses.
In addition to manufacturing and selling these separation membranes, we are carrying out water treatment process development and technological advice such as for filtration plants in developing countries.
Principle of "hole diffusion" technology
Next-generation membrane separation “hole
diffusion” technology
●Low maintenance, energy-saving membrane
separation technology
Membrane separation based on hole diffusion technology
that our company has developed uniquely reduces the
frequency of maintenance, as it makes clogging hard to
occur. In addition, even when the amount of processing
has decreased, regeneration to a state that is nearly the
same as the initial state is possible through disassembly
based on simple cleaning and chemicals. Since ultralowpressure processing (less than 0.15atm) that does not require filtration pressure is carried out, it is possible to
“separate” using minute power consumption.
As it is low maintenance and energy-saving, this is linked
to reduction of running costs as well.

Seibu Giken Co., Ltd.
VOC concentrator “Sky Save” that makes use of supported technology of
hydrophobic zeolite and honeycomb manufacturing technology that Seibu Giken
has accumulated over a long period of time.
Realizes highly-efficient and low-cost VOC treatment, and contributes to
measures against air pollution.
The VOC concentrator “Sky Save” that Seibu Giken manufactures and sells is a product that brings together the honeycomb manufacturing technology that we have amassed for over 30 years and the support technology (attachment onto
carrier) of functional substances. Hydrophobic zeolite, which can adsorb various VOCs, attaches onto the surface of
inorganic fiber paper that is formed into a honeycomb shape. When exhaust that contains VOCs is passed through Sky
Save, the hydrophobic zeolite selectively adsorbs only VOCs, making it possible to concentrate VOCs on the surface.
The adsorbed VOC is desorbed based on heat, and as a result, by passing a small amount of hot air through Sky Save
after exhaust treatment, it is possible to create gas containing highly-concentrated VOC, thus enabling for efficient combustion of VOCs afterwards. Through this, it has become possible to lower the cost of VOC treatment that is part of
measures against air pollution.
→ Actual honeycomb rotor. Hydrophobic
zeolite is supported on the fine honeycomb
surface.
VOC concentrator “Sky Save”
●Concentrates and recovers VOC in exhaust gas in high concentrations, and significantly reduces processing
costs.
Although recovered VOC is combusted using fossil fuels, when the VOC
concentration in emissions is low, it is inefficient as large amounts of fuel is
used, and space for combusting large amounts of gas is required.
After VOC is highly concentrated using “Sky Save,” it becomes possible to
create gas containing highly-concentrated VOC by passing hot air through
Sky Save, enabling for consumption of fuel to be curbed to the minimum.
In addition, it also becomes to design the combustion equipment so that it
is compact, allowing for effective use of limited space.

●Can be applied to a wide variety of VOCs
Since the types of VOCs that are used vary depending on the factory, a
concentrator that can be adapted to various VOCs has been desired. By
changing the type and structure of hydrophobic zeolite that is supported
to the surface, it is possible to manufacture a concentrator that can adapt
to various VOCs. Since heat resistance is also high as compared to activated charcoal that was used in the past as an adsorption agent, it is possible to adsorb VOCs with a high boiling point as well. We have a product
lineup that supports various zeolites, and our products are used at many
plants, such as coating booths at automobile plants, semiconductor production plants, printing plants, etc.

↑ Basic principle of VOC concentrator. When exhaust that
contains VOC is passed through Sky Save, VOC is concentrated
on the Sky Save surface. By passing a small amount of hot air
through it, it can be recovered as highly-concentrated VOC gas.
●Introduced at plants where a large amount of VOCs occur, such as at coating booths at automobile plants, semiconductor plants, etc.
There is a manufacturing plant for our company’s products in Changshu City, Jiangsu Province of China, enabling for
China’s needs to be supported smoothly.
●In emerging countries, awareness of air pollution and the working environment has been increasing. “Sky Save” is
equipment that allows for efficient VOC treatment in a limited space, and its use in various countries and regions is anticipated.

Superior in fire resistance and durability, heat shield coating “Smart Coat○R ”
for window glass significantly cuts ultraviolet rays and infrared rays.
By coating the surface of window glass, etc. with “Smart Coat○R ”, ultraviolet rays and infrared rays are blocked significantly, allowing for a cool indoor space. During the summer, when air-conditioning is essential, this coating suppresses
heat from flowing in from the outside, and controls the rise in indoor temperature. In addition, it also curbs the power
consumption of air conditioners as well as electricity costs.
Although there is heat shield film, which is a similar product, issues with this film consisted of low durability and its
susceptibility to scratches and tears. "Smart Coat○R " is an improvement of this film, and it was first installed on the window glasses of telephone boxes. In Southeast Asia, etc., since the burden of air-conditioning is large, there have been an
increasing number of inquiries regarding this technology recently.
Ultraviolet rays and infrared rays are absorbed by
the Smart Coat film, and the indoors is kept cool

Lead batteries that can be regenerated and restored, without having to dispose
of them!
Through combined use of the “discharge curve diagnosis system” that is
developmental technology related to regeneration of lead batteries and “refresh
equipment”, regeneration quality is significantly increased.
The technology developed by Tire Supply Kyushu is a series of new techniques for “regenerating” used lead batteries
“without having to dispose of them.”
The important point in refreshing (regenerating) lead batteries is being able to accurately comprehend the state of deterioration of used lead batteries. By using the “diagnosis system” that we have developed uniquely, it is possible to obtain further accurate data related to the state of degradation of lead batteries. Based on this data, accurate refresh processing that uses feeble currents (pulse current) is utilized to provide regenerated lead batteries of a high quality of 85%
as compared to new products to the market.
→ The latest automatic lead
regeneration equipment
●Discharge curve diagnosis system developed uniquely by Tire Supply Kyushu
In order to regenerate used batteries, first of all, it is important to accurately comprehend the variations in voltage and the voltage level of each cell. The diagnosis system that we developed emphasizes the voltage curve, and compared to traditional methods where only discharge voltage is comprehended, it is possible to capture the state of degradation in a more detailed manner, as well as
variations among cells in a timely manner. Of course, it is also useful in checking quality after
refreshing the batteries.
●Enhanced refreshing equipment
By applying a feeble current (pulse current) to the deteriorated cell, the deterioration components that have adhered
to the electrodes (sulfation) can be separated from the
electrodes and dissolved in electrolyte solution. Currently
we have 5 refreshing devices that make use of pulse currents, and have systems that can support various voltages
and amperes.
●Highly proficient technicians
↑ Lead battery (upper left) and refreshing of used lead
batteries based on automatic regeneration equipment
(bottom right).
Technicians with advanced technical skills are essential in diagnosing and regenerating
lead batteries. We currently have several technicians on staff who possess superior battery
regeneration techniques. In addition, we are actively progressing with research and development, and are improving our technical skills on a daily basis. We are also conducting
research and development based on cooperation with external doctors of engineering.
●Up to now, our company has progressed with focused business expansion for electrical forklift truck users, such as at
logistics warehouses, major automobile plants, major precision machinery plants, and in the food industry.
●In the future, we are planning on actively moving forward with market development of lead batteries that are used in

“Chemical Cation Pack” coating with a trilaminar structure and high heat
insulating effects.
By coating various roofs such as of factories, elementary and junior high
schools, and trains, with this coating, large effects are exhibited in making
indoor temperature comfortable as well as energy-saving!
“Chemical Cation Pack” coating with a trilaminar structure that was developed by Murai Chemical Pack Co., Ltd. is an
acrylic coating that demonstrates high heat insulation effects. Although it was originally a product that was developed
as a strengthening and protective coating for slate roofs that had become decrepit, we received opinions from users at
construction sites that the indoor temperature in the summertime decreased greatly. Upon conducting detailed surveys,
we found that the air space that exists in the middle layer of the trilaminar structure yields high heat insulation effects.
Our product has been certified by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as a New Partnership Program as “nonconventional strengthening and heat insulation complex coating,” and has been used widely by major railway companies and factories in Japan, as well as elementary schools and junior high schools.

Within the trilaminar structure, the one that yields heat insulation effects
is the middle layer, or the “main chemical cation material.” In this main
material, there are an infinite number of air layers, which control the
conduction of heat that is absorbed from sunlight. The durability of the
coating itself is high, and the heat insulation effects continue for a long
period of time. It is also effective in energy-saving in cooling and heating environments.

●Increased durability of slate roofs
Decrepit slate roofs become brittle, and sometimes even become damaged by strong winds. The main chemical penetration primer + cation
material that serves as the foundation layer of “Chemical Cation Pack”
functions to strengthen slate, and can also dramatically increase durability (strength). In the case of slate roofs that contain asbestos, it can control scattering of asbestos through construction based on the nonwashing method.
●Expresses effects through accurate construction techniques
In order to make maximum use of the heat insulation function of
Chemical Cation Bag, accurate construction techniques are necessary. Our company has numerous workers who specialize in accurate construction technology, and we have a system where we can
support construction of large-scale facilities as well as construction
overseas.

“Bio-soil” is a special mixed medium that uses a unique kneading machine where hard zeolite, activated carbon, bark
compost, and starter culture are uniformly gauged and kneaded based on a given blend inside a plant. The strength of
the microorganisms contained in “Bio-soil” is what dissolves and deodorizes mixed odors from water treatment and
sludge.
We have an abundant record of approximately 700 of these being used in Japan, and they are economical deodorization
systems with low running costs. Currently, we are expanding our Bio-soil deodorizer, and are reviewing overseas expansion such as into China.

High-performance and environment-friendly mud solidification technology “Deisat
R
Construction Method○
”.
The major component of the medicinal agent is a safe material derived from nature
Treatment capacity with high-speed processing that is two times faster than in the
past, hot technology that is gaining attention from overseas companies.
“Deisat Construction Method○R ” that our company, which has strengths in soil rehabilitation and water quality improvement technology, has uniquely developed enables for high-speed treatment of mud that is generated at construction
sites, etc. while reducing environmental burdens, by making use of natural, inorganic soil conditioner. Based on this, the
work efficiency of construction increases and cost-reduction effects can also be expected.
By applying this technology, we are currently expanding heavy metal insoluble treatment of contaminated soil. We have
made soil contamination countermeasures possible for various types of land, based on our technology in medicinal
agent selection strength in developing construction methods. Our superior technology is also gaining attention from
abroad, and we have concluded a memorandum of business cooperation with a company in Guizhou Province of China
for environmental improvement in 2013.

●Mud solidification technology that
uses environment-friendly, inorganic improving agent
Using an inorganic soil improving agent, the mud that is generated
at construction sites, etc. is solidified, and instantaneously improved to a soil quality that is not liquid. When this soil improving
agent and special chemical agent are used, heavy metals can be contained in a stable manner, and elution amounts minimized. In
addition, the major components of this improving agent are natural materials such as volcanic ash (deposits of volcanic ash and
sand) and clay material (bentonite), and thus is
not necessary to worry about soil contamination ↓ (Left) Sludge after it has been granulated using our company’s soil improving agent

●Chemical agent that can be applied to
sludge with high water content
at large-scale construction sites
In the case of sludge with high water content,
solidification is difficult using past techniques,
and as time is also required for dehydration
treatment, etc., there were problems such as the
amount of treatment per day being limited. Our
inorganic improving agent can granulate sludge
with high water content rapidly, which enables
for early carrying out of soil, which in turn allows for shortening of construction periods and
cost reduction. There is data that the Deisat
ity that is twice that of traditional conConstruction Method○R has soil treatment capacstruction methods. As the granulated improved soil can also be used in concrete, it will not flow again, enabling for reuse as embankment material.
●Making use of high treatment capacity, our technology is used in various locations centering on large-scale construction
sites in Fukuoka Prefecture (Kyushu University, etc.) and Miyagi Prefecture (Kessennuma region).
●By utilizing a chemical agent selection technique that is suited to the conditions of soil contamination, it is possible to
promptly progress with soil contamination measures in various countries and regions.

Development of process control panels for high-purity aluminum purification
over long periods of time
Our high technical strength and superior managerial power are recognized,
and we received the FY2012 Excellent Manager Award. We also have strength
in analysis equipment for environmental pollutants.
Purification of high-purity aluminum that is used in various fields including the automobile, train car, aircraft, pharmaceutical packaging, and electronics fields, requires detailed temperature and flow control. Yabegawa Electric Industries
has made use of its technical strength in having delivered many control board devices to major local companies, and is
currently developing high-purity aluminum control boards. Our equipment have been introduced in many factories not
only in Japan but in the United States, Russia, Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand, and it is considered as being essential to
high-purity purification of aluminum. We are also actively developing new businesses, such as by selling analysis
equipment that we have developed jointly with Kyushu University, and are making use of our technological development strength that we have polished through our control boards.

“High-purity aluminum control boards”
●Control device that is essential to high-purity aluminum purification
High-purity aluminum of a level of 99.99 to 99.999% is manufactured by melting aluminum at a
high temperature of approximately 800°C, and implementing a process where impurities are
eliminated using a ceramic filter, etc. Uses for high-purity aluminum include electronic products
such as semiconductors, and it is a field in which even a minute amount of impurities are impermissible. As a result, for the high-purity process, precise process control for eliminating impurities to the utmost extent possible is required. The high-purity aluminum control boards that we
develop and manufacture are devices for temperature control and flow volume control of the purification process, and an important device in manufacturing high-purity aluminum. Our control
boards are well-received, and are used widely not only in Japan but abroad as well.
●Development of control devices for analysis, by
making use of our high technological development
strength
Our company has developed and manufactured many process
control boards for major local companies up to now. This
technological development strength is currently being applied
to analytical devices. The flow controller and measurement
devices that we have developed through joint research with
Kyushu University are devices where the process from infusion of specimen to preparation/agitation of reagents and creation of standards curves can be all carried out automatically.
Normally, preprocessing of chemical analysis requires troublesome work such as sample preparation, but by using this device, all work is automated,
and it is possible to obtain highly reliable analysis data in a prompt manner.

●Control boards are used in various sectors such as chemical plants, non-ferrous smelters, power generation plants, etc.
throughout Japan.
●We have a large track record of introduction of our control boards overseas as well. Our control device for analysis has
continuously been featured in exhibitions, and we are planning on broad business expansion of products other than control boards as well.
