Measurement of TOC (Total Organic Carbon) in the Pulp and Paper Industry - Case Studies on Management Leading to Compliance with Wastewater Regulations, Optimization of Wastewater Treatment Processes, and Cost Reduction.

TOC analyzer with internal automatic cleaning function that reduces clogging and maintenance hassle! Demo units available for loan.

The online TOC analyzer BioTector offers several models tailored to your usage needs. The 'B7000i' is an online TOC analyzer designed for high-concentration wastewater, equipped with an internal automatic cleaning function that minimizes clogging and maintenance hassles. It can measure wastewater containing soft particles up to 2mm in diameter without dilution, allowing for automatic measurements without downtime, without the need for cleaning clogs or stopping the device. Depending on the application, various models can be selected for COD/BOD/TC, with one unit capable of handling up to 6 channels. Explosion-proof models (overseas explosion-proof) are also available. It employs a unique wet two-stage oxidation method. If there are challenges with oxidation power in the wet method, this approach overcomes those issues. 【Features】 ■ Internal automatic cleaning function ■ Reduces clogging and maintenance hassles ■ Annual operating rate of over 99% ■ Various model selections available based on application *For more details, please refer to the catalog.

We will introduce a case of updating the TOC analyzer at a wastewater treatment plant of a recycled paper manufacturer.

The German recycled paper manufacturer Steinbeis Papier has been using a high-temperature combustion oxidation method TOC analyzer for many years, but there have been many cases where the measurement range of the existing TOC analyzer was insufficient, and it was considered necessary to replace the equipment due to aging. Therefore, taking this opportunity for an upgrade, they decided to introduce a new online TOC analysis device to measure the TOC content at the entrance and exit of the wastewater treatment plant. By installing our online TOC analyzer at the entrance of the wastewater treatment plant, the control of the water purification sedimentation treatment process has been automated. Additionally, the process control system manages the dosing of urea and phosphoric acid in real-time based on flow rate, ammonia concentration, and TOC values, ensuring an optimal nutrient ratio.

Not only easy to use, but also achieving outstanding total cost of ownership! Here we present case studies related to water treatment plants in the United States.

This facility, owned by the Douglas County Rural Water District 3 in Kansas, operates two water treatment plants and a distribution network of 280 miles (approximately 450 km). The facility faced several issues regarding TOC measurements, as the values obtained from existing equipment did not match those from a state-certified third-party organization that was sending samples. As a solution, they introduced the "QbD1200." This allowed them to obtain highly accurate TOC data necessary for optimizing coagulant treatment, and during the demo period, they brought samples to a certified lab in Lawrence, where they found a correlation between the "QbD1200" and the data from the city of Lawrence. The team gained new confidence in the measurements, enabling them to analyze and optimize the dosage of coagulants, control the process, and reduce unnecessary chemical treatments.

We will be holding a webinar to introduce the cloud-based electronic lab notebook 'Labstep'. Labstep is a cloud-based electronic lab notebook (ELN) developed by researchers for researchers, originating from the University of Oxford. It supports all research activities, including not only experimental records but also reagent management and the creation of experimental workflows. 1) It has an intuitive and easy-to-use interface, allowing anyone to start using it immediately. 2) There are no costs or time required for implementation (as short as one month). 3) It enables quick searching, sharing, and comparison of data records (text, files, chemical structures, gene sequences, charts).

[Speaker] Masayo Hoshina, Ph.D. Executive Officer, Accenture Japan Head of Data & AI Group, Accenture Japan Co-Head, Accenture Innovation Hub Tokyo [Key Lecture Content] The emergence of large language models is subjecting all industries to waves of transformation. Particularly in sales and administrative roles, it has been pointed out that an average of 44% of labor hours could be changed by AI. In this lecture, we will introduce the current state of AI implementation while providing an overview of AI from the past to the future, examining both the growth opportunities and risks presented by AI from multiple perspectives. While AI serves as a catalyst for growth for companies and workers, it is also a disruptor that fundamentally changes the nature of work. As companies stand at a significant crossroads, we will clearly explain the pathway to the total enterprise reinvention (TER) of the entire organization.
