Is WEF’s α-Gaia system effective to treat sewage sludge?

We have a world-leading technology to generate active oxygen out of atmospheric oxygen. Our system,α-Gaia has a built-in active oxygen generator to break cell walls quickly. This new technology allows effective decomposition of cell walls, which other methods, such as high temperature / pressure, acid, alkali, and ozone, have never been able to achieve. Moreover, this method allows quick and effective evaporation of water content outflowing from cells.

The graph below shows a breakdown of the types of industrial waste reported in 2004 per volume. Sludge takes up about 40% of overall waste. Within this 40%, sewage sludge comprises a large part, taking nearly 20% of the overall percentage.



Cell membranes begin breaking down 2 to 3 hours after sludge is loaded to the α-Gaia system. If you continue the process until it becomes powderized, it can be recycled as fuel. Or, you can stop the process as soon as cell membranes are broken, and then compost it, so the final product can be used as fertilizer.

・ What is industrial waste disposal?
・ What is sludge (industrial waste)?
・ What is sludge treatment?
・ Why is so much sewage sludge generated?
・ Is sewage sludge simply treated by drying, incinerating, or landfilling?
・ Is WEF’s α-Gaia system effective to treat sewage sludge?
・ Do you have technologies other than the α-Gaia system?
・ How can we adopt CLIRAC treatment in our facility?
・ What is the procedure for CLARIC treatment at our site?
・ Is CLIRAC treated sludge recyclable?
・ Petroleum sludge is known to be very difficult to treat, therefore, such sludge is normally left untreated. Is your technology able to treat and recycle this type of sludge?
・ The demand for a new treatment technology has emerged because the current methods suffer from issues with energy-consumption and disposal limitations. Is WEF capable of providing technology to solve these two issues?
・ Pressurized flotation separation process of oil requires a large amount of chemicals in addition to high maintenance and cost for disposing the separated oil substance as industrial waste. Does the SBC-Pro treatment system help solve these issues?
・ Waste disposal is broadly categorized as one of two types, industrial waste or general waste. For general waste disposal, unlike Japan, China and other Asian countries are lacking strict waste recycling regulations, even though their landfill capacities are getting smaller and smaller. We often see photos of children in such countries working and searching for valuables in the waste disposal sites (raw garbage). Do you have any solution to treat general waste without waste segregation?
・ What is active oxygen?
・ Is active oxygen potentially harmful to humans?
・ Are there merits that outweigh the risks of active oxygen? / Why did you decide to use　this material?
・ What makes WEF’s technology in active oxygen a “world-leading” technology?
・ Is active oxygen easy to generate?
・ How does active oxygen work?
・ What types of material can be treated with α-Gaia?
