Protect our ocean from plastic waste
Clean Ocean Project 2050
90 % or more
Of the plastic produced in the world is not recycled. Most of them are ending up in the ocean.
80 % or more
of the debris washed ashore on the coast of Japan is plastic. That causes severe damage to the local environment.
27 times
Half of ocean plastics are said to originate hazards in the Japan sea is 27 times higher than the world average.
8 million tons of plastic are discharged into the ocean every year. By 2050, ocean plastics are said to exceed the amount of fish. In 2022 the Plastics Resource Recycling Law has been enforced in Japan, and while voluntary collection and effective utilization are required under the responsibility of the discharger, it is difficult to recycle at the discharge source with the current recycling method. In the Clean Ocean Project 2050 we aim to solve the problem by putting our technologies
together with the alliance companies and create a sustainable solution for the restoration of our ocean.
Energy derived from 100% plastic waste
can save energy & disposal cost
We are working to solve the problem of plastic waste at the site where plastic is washed ashore on the coast of Japan. These beached tons of plastic are enormous financial burdens for local governments. We regard this as a positive offset by converting into plastic fuel pellets and strengthening the key industries in the region as free sources of energy. In that way that it can minimize the carbon footprint of plastic waste disposal and realize energy savings by backing up conventional fuel.
No more plastic ending up in the sea!
Stop Ocean Plastic
Clean up the ocean plastic and no more discharge from Industry
Let's protect the richness of the sea
Drifting plastic
Local revitalization energy
Effectively use as a valuable energy resource before the drifting plastic waste on the coast of Japan becomes microplastic. We consider it as energy for local production for local consumption that supports local industries, and strive to add value.
Responsibility to make and use
Corporate plastic
In-house circulating energy
Less than 10% of plastic waste is recycled as a raw material in Japan. Very few companies recycle themselves. Achieve zero emissions by recycling in-house resources and circulating to in-house heat sources.

Overcome three obstacles
for Plastic recycling
for
Challenging
There are various types of plastic, and it is very difficult to separate and separate them. Furthermore, are you facing problems such as composite materials, dirt, and mixed plastic?
Cost
Recycling after collection involves many processes, which requires time and cost. Are you giving up because it is not economically profitable?
Environmental footprint
If the environmental load cannot be reduced, there is no point in recycling. Isn't it a burden on the environment by following that process?
A sustainable solution in the smallest loop
Click the image to see the system details.
The e-PEP system converts the generated plastic waste into energy on the spot. It is a recycling system centered on a resin-only boiler that converts dirt, composite, and mixed plastic, which are difficult to effectively use, into fuel pellets for clean combustion and high-efficiency energy conversion.
Watch the video for more details on the system.
Regenerate energy from ocean plastics and Industrial plastic
Three effects to protect the environment
Cut100 ton/yr
waste plastic emissions
Energy can be used by converting plastic waste into resin fuel as the source. It is possible to control the discharge of waste plastic that has been collected, incinerated, and landfilled by outsourcing.
Cut 90,000 L/yr
fossil fuel
The plastic waste is converted into energy at the source and used as a backup for the existing boiler. The amount of fossil fuel used has been reduced by replacing resin fuel and Realizing energy savings.
Cut 290tCO2/yr
greenhouse gases
From the perspective of LCA, the use of energy at the source of plastic waste has the effect of reducing greenhouse gases in the same amount as CO2 absorbed by 20,000 cedar trees in one year.
* The above is the reduction value per system when the resin boiler Evol is operated 300 days a year for 16 hours a day. GHG emission reduction values are based on LCA analysis by an external audit corporation. Uses the emission intensity database for calculating the organization's greenhouse gas emissions through the Ministry of the Environment's supply chain.
