Living environment preservation technology (noise / vibration prevention, light pollution countermeasures, odor countermeasures, atmospheric exhaust heat suppression), etc.
Ethylene oxide treatment technology category, heat island countermeasure technology category (technology such as air conditioning load reduction by building envelopes), heat island countermeasure technology category (sensible heat suppression technology generated from air-cooled outdoor units), VOC treatment technology category (VOC treatment technology for SMEs) ), VOC treatment technology (dichloromethane and other organochlorine degreasing agent treatment technology)
▶ Verification guidelines for existing categories
The main causes of the heat island phenomenon are: [1] Increase in artificial heat exhausted from human activities such as air conditioning systems, electrical equipment, automobiles, etc. [2] Increase in artificial ground surface due to increase in buildings and pavement surfaces. In any case, the building is one of the factors. The introduction of technology that contributes to the suppression of artificial exhaust heat from buildings and the high reflection of the concrete surface of buildings leads to countermeasures against heat islands. It also reduces utility costs by reducing the air conditioning load on the building and improving comfort by improving the thermal environment.
Among these heat island measures, measures that suppress the building itself and air conditioning equipment without renewing do not require construction, and unlike greening, the load on the building is not a problem. Therefore, this technology is easier to implement than other heat island measures.
The ETV program is considered to be useful for selecting technologies that meet the needs of users by disclosing the results of third-party technology Verification tests and providing various information necessary to determine the effectiveness of the technology.
The ETV program introduces the outline of environmental technologies available to users, publishes the results of technical Verification tests by third parties, and provides various information necessary for user technology selection. As a result, the ETV program is expected to draw out the potential needs of users and to help spread the spread of useful technologies for verification applicants.
In fact, in a questionnaire survey targeting past applicants for verification, there was a reply that “inquiry about technology increased after the verification” and “there was some effect on activities such as sales promotion and technology development”. was. Furthermore, regarding the issued ETV logo mark, there was a reply that it was “published in product brochures, technical reports, external brochures, and their website”.
