Now I would like to introduce some of Japan’s environmental technologies.
First, I would like to speak about Japan’s wastewater treatment technology. Japan has an advanced technology called johkasou, which is an on-site system that treats wastewater both quickly and at low cost. The introduction of this technology can help prevent the spread of water-borne diseases as well as conserve the quality of the water environment. A manual has been developed to enable technology transfer and seminars have been held to promote this technology.
