Drainage management test using the WET method
We will handle drainage management tests using the WET method.
The WET (Whole Effluent Toxicity) method is an abbreviation for "water environment management techniques using biological responses," which refers to a method of comprehensively managing wastewater by utilizing living organisms (bioassays). It is a method for assessing the toxicity of wastewater that originated in the United States and is becoming a global standard in countries such as Canada and South Korea. In Japan, discussions on the introduction and legal framework of this method are currently being advanced by the Ministry of the Environment. Specifically, it involves cultivating organisms 1 to 3 in wastewater and confirming safety by ensuring that there are no abnormalities such as the following: 1. "Algae (such as Cladophora)" ... checking for growth inhibition 2. "Zooplankton (such as water fleas)" ... checking for reproductive abnormalities, malformations, etc. 3. "Fish (such as medaka and zebrafish)" ... checking for acute toxicity (survival rate)
