We would like to introduce our company's initiatives for utilizing food waste. We are working on creating a system for the cascade utilization of food waste, which includes raw material residues generated during the food manufacturing process and food that is discarded due to expiration. In collaboration with food-related businesses and the agricultural sector that are addressing the same issues, we aim to contribute to CO2 reduction in local communities through biogas power generation and to promote the utilization of feed and fertilizers derived from food waste in agriculture, thereby building a circular value chain and striving for a sustainable society. **Four Initiatives** - Increase in electricity derived from renewable energy through biogas power generation - Increase in feed self-sufficiency rate through the expansion of feed utilization from food waste - Promotion of environmentally friendly agriculture utilizing unused biomass resources - Establishment of a circular value chain through the creation of a recycling loop *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.*

We would like to introduce our company's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As a specific initiative, we are switching from natural gas boilers to boilers that use wood chips as fuel, thereby reducing CO2 emissions and the use of fossil fuels. Additionally, we utilize waste heat, including steam emitted from the dryer, as a heat source for concentrating wastewater before it is fed back into the dryer, and we monitor electricity usage in real-time to reduce electricity consumption. 【Specific Initiatives】 ■ Biomass Boiler ■ Utilization of High-Temperature Steam ■ Power Monitor *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

I would like to introduce the benefits of biogas power generation. In the case of thermal power generation, which is a typical method of power generation, electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels such as oil and coal, and this process inevitably produces CO2. In contrast, biogas power generation utilizes biogas derived from biomass, making it a clean power generation method that does not produce CO2 and is carbon neutral. [Benefits] ■ Utilizes biogas derived from biomass ■ A clean power generation method that is carbon neutral and does not produce CO2 *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce the features of our biogas power generation business. We strictly implement environmental measures and have designed our facilities with space-saving in mind, enabling us to establish locations in urban areas. The processing flow is based on the treatment of industrial waste, allowing for the acceptance of large quantities of single materials by ensuring uniformity in the characteristics of the input materials through a conditioning tank. Additionally, the digestate produced during the methane fermentation process contains many components necessary for agricultural products and is used as an alternative to chemical fertilizers. [Features] - Urban biogas power generation facilities realized through compliance with environmental measures and space-saving design - Capable of accepting industrial waste such as wastewater treatment sludge and process wastewater that generates large quantities of single materials in one discharge without any issues - Can process food waste containing oils and salts, as well as bagged and cardboard-packaged materials - The digestate produced during methane fermentation is dehydrated and recycled into fertilizer - The electricity generated is utilized as local power *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

"Biogas power generation" is a method that uses livestock manure and food-derived waste as raw materials to conduct methane fermentation, generating biogas that is used as fuel in a biogas dedicated power generator. Our company has constructed the Nishinomiya Biogas Power Plant, which uses food-derived organic waste as a raw material for renewable energy. We conduct biogas power generation using industrial waste such as wastewater treatment sludge and food scraps, and the electricity generated is sold using the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) system. **Features of our biogas power generation business:** - An urban biogas power generation facility realized through compliance with environmental measures and space-saving design. - Industrial waste such as wastewater treatment sludge and process wastewater, which generates large quantities of a single product in a single discharge, can be accepted without issue. - Food scraps containing oil and salt, as well as packaged items in bags or cardboard, can also be processed. - The digestate produced during methane fermentation is dehydrated and recycled into fertilizer. - The electricity generated is utilized as local power. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.*

We would like to introduce our company's "Food Waste Treatment and Recycling." Our food recycling system allows us to adapt the process according to the content of the food we handle and choose the appropriate method. Additionally, 100% of the waste we accept can be recycled, including the packaging. In the waste crushing and sorting process, machines are used to separate packaging materials from the food. These machines also play a role in removing packaging materials that interfere with food recycling and in destroying brand logos printed on the packaging. [Methods of Food Waste Recycling] ■ Drying ■ Methane Fermentation ■ Carbonization ■ Composting *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
