Aqua Solutions Business

We contribute to the achievement of a sustainable society in this business by providing wastewater treatment equipment that purifies and recycles wastewater to promote water and resource recycling in addition to pure water production equipment that supplies the high-purity water required for cutting-edge technologies.

Wastewater Treatment Equipment (Clean Recycle Technology)

Our wastewater treatment equipment is packed with ion-exchange resin and other adsorbents. The consignment regeneration scheme at our Koriyama Plant makes it possible to recycle water and recover resources.

Wastewater Treatment Equipment (Clean Recycle Technology)

1. Purifying and reusing water and chemicals

  • Wastewater can be reused as deionized water or pure water.
  • When impurities are removed from the chemical solutions used in plating and other industrial processes, the solutions last longer and the water can be reused.

2. Consignment regeneration scheme

  • No need for customer maintenance or chemicals for regenerating ion-exchange resin.
  • No sludge is generated from wastewater treatment.
  • Consignment regeneration of wastewater treatment equipment involves maintaining the equipment. Furthermore, the water treatment equipment does not constitute waste.

Pure Water Production System (Pure Water Technology)

Demand for high-purity water (for cleaning, mixing, inspections, and other uses) continues to rise as industrial products become more advanced. Pure water is also used to produce hydrogen, which powers fuel cell EVs and thus is regarded as an essential part of the effort to achieve carbon neutrality. Our AQUA PACK pure water production equipment is a simple pure water system packed with ion-exchange resin, and it is capable of creating high-purity water by removing impurities from tap water.
Our MR PACK (pure water production equipment)-reverse osmosis (RO) membranes paired with AQUA PACK (ion-exchange resin tower)-is used at most of the on-site hydrogen stations in Japan, thus facilitating the shift to a hydrogen-based society.

Main applications

  • Hydrogen production (hydrogen stations, Ene-Farm home-use fuel cells)
  • Washing cars
  • Surface treatment washing (plating, coating, etc.)
  • Boilers, air conditioning and humidifiers
  • Experiments and analysis

      FAQ

      Yes, ion-exchange resin can be regenerated and reused over and over. Different chemical solutions are used to regenerate different types of ion-exchange resin.

      Generally through reduction treatment using sodium bisulfite or the like, or adsorption and removal using ion-exchange resin.

      The term refers to the way ion-exchange resin in solutions containing multiple elements triggers ion exchanges with certain elements over others.
      Highly acidic ion-exchange resin (H model) selects ions in the following order:
      Cr3+ > Al3+ > Pb2+ > Fe2+ > Ca2+ > Ni2+ > Cu2+ > Zn2+ > K+ > NH4+ > Na+ > H+
