Technology Development for Newly Regulated and Difficult-to-Treat Substances

「PFOA・PFOS汚染対策用の各種調査用機材も取り揃えて、日本地下水学会や地下水土壌汚染に関する研究集会への出展等の積極的な営業活動を展開しております。」

「To confirm effectiveness in Japan, we began field demonstration testing in Tokyo and also conducted field demonstrations of a new survey method introduced from the United States to assess the current state of PFAS-related groundwater contamination.」

「The method has been highly regarded in Europe and the United States for its track record in addressing groundwater contamination by PFOA and PFOS, which have rapidly attracted attention, and its effectiveness has also been demonstrated as an on-site immobilization method for PFOA/PFOS-contaminated soil.」

「We are conducting joint research with Osaka Metropolitan University, which has extensive expertise in catalytic chemistry, on the research and development of oxidative degradation technologies for PFOA and PFOS and equipment using those technologies.」

「The method has also been proven effective in Europe and the United States for addressing groundwater contamination by PFOA and PFOS, which have rapidly attracted attention. We have also assembled various types of survey equipment for PFOA/PFOS contamination and are actively pursuing sales activities, including proposals to local governments and exhibiting at the Ground Environment Forum.」

「The first project using the in situ permeable reactive barrier method, newly introduced from a US company as a leading risk-management method for prolonged groundwater contamination at operating factories, was completed successfully. A hybrid method combining our in situ chemical oxidation technology with the Plume Stop method has been certified as a recommended technology under Tokyo’s “Groundwater Contamination Expansion Prevention Technology Support” program.」

「The hybrid method combining the in situ chemical oxidation technology and PlumeStop method held by EnBio Engineering Co., Ltd. was certified as a technology recommended under the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Groundwater Contamination Spread Prevention Technology Support program.」

「We began field construction on the first project involving the in situ permeable reactive barrier method, newly introduced from a US company as a leading risk-management method for prolonged groundwater contamination at operating factories.」

「To uncover latent demand, we introduced a new in situ permeable reactive barrier method from a US company, the PlumeStop method, and won the first project. We also launched water treatment technology for addressing the newly designated hazardous substances PFOS and PFOA, which was adopted for a public-sector project.」

「To uncover latent demand, we introduced a new in situ permeable reactive barrier method from a US company as a leading risk-management remediation method and successfully won the first project. We also launched services for addressing PFOS and PFOA, newly designated hazardous substances, and successfully secured the first order.」

「To uncover latent demand, we introduced a new in situ permeable reactive barrier method from a US company as a leading risk-management remediation method and successfully won the first project. We also launched services for addressing PFOS and PFOA, newly designated hazardous substances, and are responding to specific inquiries with a view to securing the first order.」

「To respond to changes in the order environment, we introduced a new in situ permeable reactive barrier method from a US company as a leading risk-management remediation method.」

「To respond quickly to various remediation methods, we have strengthened our systems for developing, introducing and proposing new technologies and methods, centered on the Technology Strategy Office. These efforts include developing microorganisms that degrade contaminants through joint research with universities, introducing a new in situ permeable reactive barrier method from the United States, and developing technologies to address new target substances such as PFOA and PFOS.」

「To meet the need for an economical means of preventing the spread of soil and groundwater contamination at operating factories, we began developing an in situ barrier method using PlumeStop, a colloidal activated carbon suspension developed by Regenesis in the United States, for which we hold exclusive distribution rights in Japan.」

「We also conducted laboratory-scale performance and safety testing to obtain the data required to apply for a conformity review under the Guidelines for the Use of Bioremediation by Microorganisms, overseen by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of the Environment.」

「To develop an effective in situ remediation technology for 1,4-dioxane, we evaluated its degradability through chemical oxidation and biodegradation and examined its applicability to in situ remediation. We concluded that in situ remediation is possible through chemical oxidation.」

「For 1,4-dioxane, newly added to the soil environmental quality standards, we are evaluating degradation through chemical oxidation and microbial degradation and examining its applicability to in-situ remediation, with the aim of developing an effective in-situ remediation technology.」
