FUJI CLEAN CO., LTD. gave a presentation concerning "Jokaso" (on-site wastewater treatment systems) to the Senior Officials' Meeting at APEC Philippines 2015 (held on September 1).

Background of Presentation

In response to a request from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan, Fuji Clean President Kaichi Watanabe gave a presentation as a representative of on-site wastewater treatment system manufacturers, focusing on the superiority of Jokaso.

Presentation Content

We explained the role played by the outstanding water treatment device, known as a "Jokaso" in Japanese, in remedying the water pollution that occurred throughout the course of economic development in our country after World War II, as well as the benefits of introducing Jokaso in promoting the improvement of infrastructure to solve environmental problems like water pollution, which may occur hereafter as emerging nations in Asia and other regions develop economically. Moreover, as a challenge when bringing in Jokaso, we proposed that it is important to prepare a legal framework and establish a structure for maintenance as existing in Japan. Topics that attracted much interest locally included the initiatives which have been carried out in Japan for improving the waterfront environment, the development of Jokaso, and case studies of tangible water quality improvements utilizing Jokaso.

At present, many countries throughout the world face difficulty in securing hygienic water because of pollution from domestic sewage. Through this presentation, we sensed the magnitude of interest and expectation toward Jokaso that exists overseas, and are redoubling our efforts so that the technology and experience our company has concerning Jokaso might be of even greater use in the establishment of sewage treatment infrastructure around the world.
