  The Recycling Team is studying measures to contribute to the maintenance of regional environments and to create a recycling society.
 
  We develop technologies to recover wastewater and organic wastes produced by daily-life and social activities, transform these into new resources, and utilize these resources.
 
  We are also conducting research to discover the ideal sound recycling system for use by regions and by human society.

Research Subject
・ Safety Evaluation
To ensure the safety of reclaimed wastewater and recycled materials, we conduct research on measuring methods, control techniques, and safety evaluation methods such as a tracing poisonous metals, micro-polluting chemicals, and pathogenic protozoa and viruses.
 
・ Reclamation of Water
We work to develop technologies to be used to carry out more advanced decontamination of impurities in polluted water and waste water and return it to the natural world and for human use.

・ Organic waste material resource recycling systems
We work to develop technologies to stabilize and recycle sludge from water treatment and vegetation waste produced by park and landscape management, earthworks, and road, river, and forest administration, etc. and use these wastes as recycled resources.
We are also conducting research to find the ideal regional recycling system to be used to recycle resources for parks, maintain green land, clean-up the environment, and produce energy.
