  • Significant running cost reduction
  • Less regular maintenance
  • Water conservation

The heat exchanger is clogged by silica scale even when chemical treatment is performed. (Upper area: Before cleaning)
The white area is where scales are attached, and the scales completelyclog the heat exchange pipes.

Purification of circulation water by catalytic reaction
The scale removal effect can be observed shortly (approx. 3 hours) after installation of the system by innovative patented technology, and the energy and space can be saved.

As environmental pollution escalates, water purification technologies that emphasize global environment conservation while seeking coexistence with a natural environment and a recycling-based society are desired. We offer a chemical-free environmental contaminant elimination system (patented) that uses an electro-physicochemical reaction. It contributes to conservation planning for water, space, and electric power, as well as for reduction of CO2.
Our system has been adopted in the “Kasumigaura water purification project” (a project for developing technologies to purify eutrophicated lakes by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology), “Development of purification system for hard-to-process wastewater such as wastewater from dairy parlors” (by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry), and the “Purification project for dam lakes” (by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism), receiving recognition for its efficient.

As the temperature in the cooling tower rises to a degree optimal for bacteria growth, scale within the piping accumulates due to algae, bacteria, and concentrated circulation water, causing blockage in the heat exchanger. This in turn leads to issues such as decrease in efficiency in heat exchange and growth of legionella nesting in the scale inside the piping. (Mold fungi appear if regular cleaning is not well maintained.)
Chemical products have traditionally been used to deal with these issues. However, as the circulation water is evaporated and concentrated by the heat of evaporation, chemical component discharge (COD) during automatic overblow (blowdown) has been a recent concern. Thus, the maintenance cost is high.


The chemical-free water treatment system, “MICRO WATER SYSTEM” (patented) reduces maintenance, and operates while conserving energy at low costs. It can also separate and collect the scale in the circulation water, control saprophytic contamination, kill algae, and conserve water. Especially, this system has consistently been delivered to many ISO 14001 certified companies, gathering attention.
