2Reduction of Incinerated Wastes
The amount of incinerated wastes was reduced by 28.6%
from the amount recorded in 2000. Dioxin compliant
incinerator at our Kosai Plant is used to dispose of
burnable waste to reduce waste and use effectively the
heat energy. In addition, the amount of dioxin emission
is reduced by the oxygen control function incorporated
in our incinerator management system. As a result, the
dioxin level in fiscal 2010 was 0.120ng-TEQ/Nm 3 , which
was well below the regulatory level (5ng-TEQ/Nm 3 ).

■Water usage measures
We are working on ways to conserve water and reuse
wastewater in order to reduce the amount of water used
in our domestic manufacturing plants.
For this purpose, we are utilizing airtight cooling towers,
air cooled compact air conditioners, water conserving
faucets, rain water collection, collection of water from
coolers, and reuse of waste water.
Through the promotion of those activities, the total
amount of water consumption was reduced by 18%
compared to fiscal 2006.

■Activities for the Law for Promotion of Effective Utilization of Resources
Based on the Law for Promotion of Effective Utilization of
Resources, which came into effect in April 2001, we have
created a “Controlling the Occurrence of By-products
Plan” and reported the plan’s results. The purpose of this
plan is to control the occurrence of By-products, such as
scrap metal and waste casting sand. In fiscal 2010, we
reduced those By-products to 7.9 tons per 100 million
yen of sales. Our 2011 target has been set to 7.3 tons per
100 million yen.
