Plant-derived bioplastic②

The use of forest resources is growing as an industry, and the demand for forest-related resources is increasing from the securing of new energy resources to the world. In the Japan, energy-related thermal use and power generation utilization of forest and woody biomass (lumber residue, felling, pruning wood, etc.) widely distributed nationwide are carried out in various places. Overseas, the amount of the production of the bioethanol (cellulose as a raw material) of the oil alternative of the plant origin has increased comparatively. In the Japan, the production of BA-ethanol, which uses forests and woody-based cellulose as raw materials, has begun in the demonstration phase.

On the other hand, the bio-plastic as the eco-materiel use of the forest resource has already begun production as part of the member of the electric machine and the precision equipment. The research of the new material and eco-material "cellulose nanofibers" (CNF) of the use of Bioprestik is rapidly expanding plant, it became a concrete product is Bioprestik. In eco-material development, the world's top Japan has already begun to be used in electronic equipment and automotive related materials as a reinforcing plestik, in addition to disposable diapers and ballpoint pens. The main ingredient of this plant fiber is a robust structure, such as reinforced concrete, and the strength of one-fifth of the steel is five times higher than that. Moreover, because it is carbon neutral (not emitted CO2 into the atmosphere) from a renewable plant, it also leads to suppression of global warming. The source of the raw material is the forest and the primary industry. It will become an opportunity of new industry creation, and it is a barrel material in the world of pure domestic for the forest country and the Japan. The commercialization and commercialization of Bioplestik is steadily expanding.

Temperature rise 2 degrees to 2.5 degrees fixed 1998.09.15

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in the United Nations is expected to significantly increase the predicted temperature rise of global warming until the year 2100 from 2 degrees C to 2.5 degrees C. The amount of fine particles reflecting solar rays in the atmosphere is likely to decrease in the future. This fine particle is caused by SOX and other countries, but it is predicted that the amount of the outbreak will be significantly below the initial forecast as China and other developing nations try to prevent air pollution.

Solar power is for heat use 2

The heat collector to collect the solar heat that can be used for cooling in the summertime, water to be accumulated in water, it can be roughly divided into air type to store in the air, water type is possible to retrofit to the existing facility, whereas the air type of building integrated is the advantage that can be used directly heating the air warmed.
In addition, heat storage tank and water storage tank for leveling the heat demand balance caused by the gap in the time zone of heat utilization and heat collection, heat exchanger, and performs a hot water and heating in combination such as a boiler, further heat can be chemically converted to air conditioning in the summertime. As a promising industry for nuclear power plants, the use of solar heat is affected by the rise in crude oil prices due to the second oil crisis in 1979. Although demand increased at that time, the subsided of oil prices continued to peak around 1980. The due of the great East Japan earthquake and the Fukushima nuclear power plant, the effective means of combating global warming, and attracting attention again as a promising industry.

Geothermal power equals 10 nuclear reactors

<Nuclear power is not at your feet. Geothermal energy >

● In addition to renewable energy such as solar and wind, it is the geothermal power that attracts attention in recent years as a local consumption energy. In volcanic countries and Japan, geothermal power generation capacity is a big energy resource that is twice the current wind and three times the solar light. Moreover, the CO2 emitted by power generation is a clean energy which contributes to measures against global warming at about one-twentieth of thermal power generation and the same low level as hydroelectric power generation. The hot water resources required for Japan geothermal power generation is 33 million liters in the world, with a power generation capacity of 10 nuclear reactors.

● Geothermal power generation is the one to turn the turbine directly with steam taken out from deep underground.In the thermal power plant, it can be said that the Earth plays the role of the boiler in geothermal power generation while steam is generated by the heat by the combustion of coal, oil, and LNG. As for geothermal power generation, the period leading to the investigation and the development and the operation of excavation etc. up to now has a drawback that the running cost becomes high after all, and the development trader was limited. Therefore, the country has been urging deregulation measures to support the initial investment from the 1990s and to commercialize it in a national park with a lot of geothermal spots. The expansion of these support systems, according to the Ministry of Economics, has set the goal that the amount of geothermal power generation can be developed up to 1.2 million kw in 20 years and 1.9 million kw in 30 years.By the way, the total output of global geothermal power generation is predicted to swell to 200 million kw in 50 years.The center of the market is Southeast Asia and Africa.

　The "Paris agreement" measures global warming since 2020, and the business opportunities for geothermal power generation are increasing. By the way, the amount of geothermal power used in Japan is ninth in the world. 70% of the world's geothermal power turbines are made Japan of high technology.

In developed countries, the aim is to stop using plastic straws and to improve recycling, but these disposable products are only 9%. Efforts have been made to reduce disposable plastics over and over again, but the status quo continues to increase rather than decrease. The shopping bag used in the convenience store has increased recently, too. Though it is a developing country to put out a lot of plastic garbage, China which has imported the waste plastic of the developed country up to now also started the restriction. In addition to the measures of only one country in the developed countries, as well as global warming measures, it is now being demanded by the world-wide approach. From the conventional petroleum-based plastic as a part of the plastic waste measures the creation chance of new industry of green PLA, the movement of promoting the use of paper and biodegradable plastic (green plastic) derived from natural plants has come out. In the development of new materials, Japan of the world's top runners, material development makers are facing a big business opportunity. Eco-friendly green plastic technology has already been seen as standby. The scale of GDP (gross national product) competing on the extension of human desires is at a marginal value. There were countries that had previously cut down tropical forests and exported timber to expand their GDP. On the other hand, countries that have reduced green and forest resources have long stalled in the country's power. We are now seeking to break away from the conventional supremacy of GDP.

To review the basic environmental plan 1999.04.15

The environmental agency has hardened its policy of reviewing the basic environmental plan. Since the present basic plan has been pointed out that the idea and the prototype are raised, but there is no specific indicator or numerical value, it is advisory to the Central Environmental Council in May. 1. Set environmental indicators and numerical targets divided into long-term, medium-and short-term targets, and will be deliberated on the clarification of the policy of focusing on 2, water circulation and global warming.

Business with global warming

The market for energy conservation, power saving, self-power generation, and storage of renewable energy is rapidly expanding, as the mainstream of the Japan earthquake and disaster waste treatment after the Tepco nuclear power plant accident, and the radioactive disasters continue to be not relying on nuclear power plants. The environmental business is formed as an all-participating market for the first to third-order industries. In the industrial world, the movement of the nuclear power plant has accelerated in the early and the government's nuclear policy. In the domestic environmental business market, it is the "resource and energy securing" of the pure domestic environment which is listed as the growth field which can be expected in the future. As a result, the industry expansion in these fields will lead to prevention of global warming and low carbon. Therefore, the global warming business is one of the opportunities for the creation of business in the environment, but it does not become the starting point of the idea of business creation. Because climate change is not a global warming phenomenon, global warming and low-carbon business opportunities will not be derived.

The original significance of environmental business The purpose of environmental business is to develop an environment that includes natural and ecological systems for the realization of a sustainable and prosperous society for the future generations, but for the past seven or eight years, environmental business has been emphasizing the "living environment" of the current generation of amenity-oriented It is beginning to deviate from the original meaning. In the political world, the borders of territorial, territorial waters and airspace are thriving, and the deterioration of the global environment related to human fate is indifferent. It is time to sincerely ask that the 21st century is the century of the environment.

About global warming related business ①

<Global warming prevention and low-carbon related business >

Global warming has been attracting attention as global climate change is manifesting. In the field of environmental business, global warming-related businesses are listed in affair. It has been proposed to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (CO2, etc.), which is a major factor of global warming, and to expand renewable energy and increase energy-saving measures. They do not go out of the region of the coping therapy conception if it says.　If the global warming issue does not come to the table, is not the creation of those related businesses? Think about global warming and low carbon related business in Japan.

The global warming-related business is so forth to prevent global warming and low-carbon related business, including renewable energies, energy saving, power saving, electricity storage, new species improvement due to changes in distribution of food production areas, or forest regeneration and conservation. However, it is wise not to think that the basis of these business in Japan is necessarily caused by the warming. It seems that the conception from the resource and the energy securing is not unreasonable as the resource small country and the Japan rather than it. Securing resources and energy is the most important issue for Japan, which is a small country that relies largely on foreign resources. In the 21st century, many of the existing resources have been facing a decline in the amount of reserves, and the price rises due to a shortage of global resources and energy. It is said that the 21st century is the age of resource contention, and from the standpoint of sustainability of Japan economy and society, the main theme is "Securing resources and energy" of pure domestic. In the Environment Business field closely linked to the trend of Japan economy, "resource and Energy securing" is located in the middle, and it is a business opportunity not to be missed.

Sandy's disappearance of Japan in 2080 1999.11.15

World Wildlife Fund and Research group announce future forecast by global warming. The global average temperature in 2080 is up to 3 in the 1990s. 9 degrees C, even at least 1. 2 degrees C information. The sea level is up to 104cm and is at least 19cm high. The Japan predicted a maximum temperature rise of 5 degrees C or higher in 80 years, and nearly all sandy beaches Japan disappeared due to sea level rise. The coastal industrial areas of Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka are likely to be affected by high tide.

United States slowdown in greenhouse gas emissions 1999.11.15

The U.S. Department of Energy announces its 98-year global warming gas emissions. 1.803 billion tonnes to 97 compared to 1997. 2% increased slightly (of which CO2 is equal to 1.495 billion tons). 3 percent increase). Economic growth rate in 1998 3. 9 per cent significantly above. In addition to reducing the use of fuel in the steel and chemical industries, the reduction in the automotive sector has been noticeable, but the ministry has said that it will not necessarily continue to decelerate emissions after 1999, removing special factors such as mild winter and General Motors's strike.

Forests absorb and accumulate about 11% of CO2 emissions in 1990 years

The amount of CO2 that is absorbed and accumulated by the forest and wood products, such as Wagueningen University of Netherlands, was investigated in six countries and one region, such as Japan and the United States. As a result, the Japan estimates that forests and timber products absorb and accumulate about 11% of the CO2 emissions for 90 years. Although the calculation method of CO2 absorption is determined by the Global warming Prevention conference in the Fall of 2000, the Japan which pledged to reduce by 6% compared with 90 years is recognized as a 5% increase in emissions.

Dust suppresses global warming 1999.12.15

In the forecast experiment of the Meteorological Agency, atmospheric aerosol (airborne dust) generated by burning fossil fuels and the like, the cooling effect to suppress global warming block the sunlight is 70 about 0. 3 degrees C, about 0 in 100 years. It turns out to be four degrees C. Since the aerosol is often distributed near the source, the concentration in the northern and middle latitudes is higher, and the vicinity of the Japan was also observed cooling effect of more than 1 degree C in 100 years.

Deforestation also contributes to global warming 1999.11.15

The Meteorological Institute of Japan Meteorological Agency has identified the possibility of large-scale forest fires in the tropics to contribute to global warming. From 93 to 6 years, the result of collecting and investigating the air on an airliner between Japan and Australia recorded a co concentration of 380PPB, which is nearly 10 times the most normal in the northern Australia between the fall of 1997 and the spring of 1998. The concentration pattern when the plant burns is detected, and it is found that the CO2 generated by the Indonesia forest fire at the same time.

The market size of the environmental industry 920,000 milion USD in the past maximum 2018.07.17

The market size of the environmental industry in 104,219,900,000,000 yen, the report released on June 19, 2018 reported that the domestic environmental industry in FY2016 was estimated to be 104,219,900,000,000 yen (920,000 milion USD, up 3, 6% YoY), and the size of employment Increased by 2 ・ 6% to about 2.6 million people and the largest in the past. Compared with 2000, the ratio of the environmental industry in all industries increased by approximately 1.4 times, from 6, 1% to 10, 4% in 2000.The impact of Japan on economic growth is growing. The definition of the environmental industry is divided into the following four fields, "supplying products and services, contributing directly or indirectly to environmental protection and resource management, and contributing to the realization of a sustainable society".

(1) Prevention of environmental pollution.

(2) Measures against global warming.

(3) "waste disposal and effective use of resources".

(4) "Conservation of the natural environment". 

The market size was increased by 8% to 49,623,400,000,000 yen compared with the previous year (1). On the other hand, 33,258,700,000,000 yen (2), which has been towing the expansion of the environmental industry in recent years, declined by 2%. (3) 12,746,400,000,000 yen, down 0 ・ 2%. But (4) increased by 4% to 0% to 8,592,200,000,000 yen. 

Exports amounted to 11,313,300,000,000 yen, down 7% to 1%, and imports were estimated at 3,892,400,000,000 yen, down 3 and 6%. This report is also the main public demand, private demand, and small and medium-sized companies are not able to be denied that the survey has not reached, but the environmental industry of this country is steadily growing steady first of all. The expansion is expected in the third industrial sector, mainly in the service industry, the field for the purpose of securing energy and resources, and consumer goods and living items. The golden rule of the success of the environmental industry and business is the foundation of entrepreneurship on the extension line of our core businesses.
