Target verification technology fields in the fiscal year 2004 are listed below.

	Simplified monitoring technologies for chemical substances
	Description Technologies for methodologies that are simpler than conventional approaches for the measurement of chemicals in the environment for which no official determination method exists.
	Examples Simple analytical methods, such as enzyme immunoassays and fluoroimmunoassays, that use antigen-antibody reactions or the like for the monitoring of chemicals specified in the Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers (PRTR) Law, suspected endocrine disrupting chemicals, and other chemicals
	Heat-island mitigation technology(Technology for suppressing sensible heat generated by air-conditioning systems)
	Description Technologies for preventing the urban heat island effect by suppressing the heat emitted from outdoor heat exchangers of air conditioners.
	Examples Technologies (or equipment) for suppressing the sensible heat emitted from outdoor heat exchangers of air conditioners by improving their cooling efficiency (for example, by using the latent heat of evaporation of water sprayed onto the heat exchanger).
	Ethylene Oxide Treatment Technologies
	The ethylene oxide waste gas treatment technologies specified for this Pilot Project are those (equipment and others) that process the waste gas from an ethylene oxide sterilizer (approximately 50 to 200 L in capacity) used in medical institutions and pharmaceutical plants, by means of combustion, catalytic oxidation and hydrolysis, and others, and that may be additionally installed.
	Organic Wastewater Treatment Technologies for Small-Scale Establishments (Kitchens/Restaurants and Food Manufacturing Plants)
	The wastewater treatment technologies specified for this Pilot Project are those (equipment, plants, etc.) that appropriately process organic wastewater from small-scale establishments (with a daily wastewater flow rate of less than 50 m3) such as kitchens/restaurants, food manufacturing plants etc. In particular this concerns prefabricated, low-cost, compact, easy-maintenance technologies that may be additionally installed in conventional facilities and are commercially available. In addition, the protocol for the verification also focuses on a wide variety of wastewater treatment technologies for the removal of particular pollutants, as well as collective wastewater treatment technologies. The wastewater treatment technologies are classified into two broad categories, biological treatment and non-biological treatment, but also include the combination (hybrid) of these treatments.
	Treatment Technologies for Human Waste in Mountain District
	The treatment technology for human waste in mountain district specified for this Pilot Project are the technologies of treatment of human waste in a public restroom at the mountain area, which is not served with sewage works, drainage, electricity etc. The examples of the technology (equipment) that has no effluent system are chemical treatment, biological treatment, physical treatment or combination of those treatments of human waste.
