Efforts to
Conserve Water Resources
Reducing the Environmental Impact of Wastewater
Flushing water purification unit
We have developed and are working toward deploying wastewater-free flushing technology to reduce the environmental impact of wastewater from production sites.
Practical application of wastewater-free flushing technology
We are conducting various forms of research and development to reduce the impact of effluents and exhaust air on the biological environment during construction and post-completion facility operations. For effluent treatment, we have developed a technique to purify effluents containing of flushing in pipes at the completion of piping and to return the purified effluents to the pipes instead of discharging them. We worked to disseminate the technique and had 36 cases of the introduction into sites in FY2024.
Efforts to Reduce Waste
Reducing Waste and Preventing Environmental Pollution
We proactively exercise the 3Rs at our production sites and offices to recover and reuse useful resources from waste and other materials, which we view as valuable domestic resources.
We also thoroughly manage waste through to final disposal.
- 3Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Achievement of a recycling rate of 89% at sites through separation of construction materials
We worked to reduce construction facility waste from contract work through such initiatives as the use of prefabricated facilities, elimination of packaging, promotion of recycling, and thorough separation of waste. As a result, the overall recycling rate in our 985 contract work sites in FY2024 was 89%, achieving our target. Going forward, we will work for even more separation of waste and materials in order to increase the recycling rate, including promoting initiatives at T-Base®.
Ensuring 100% control of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and industrial waste
We started to recover CFCs in FY1995, ahead of other members of the industry. In FY2024, we recovered 100% of the CFCs to be collected at 653 sites, which weighed approximately 41 tons in total. The amount of CFCs we have recovered since the start of the activities is equivalent to 938 tons. We will continue to control the recovery process completely and strive to recover CFCs to protect the ozone layer, and we will also consider introducing the recycling of CFCs in the future.
