The United Nations University first advocated the concept of zero-emissions in 1994. Although it is difficult for a single corporation to reduce its own waste emissions to zero, we are introducing a solvent recovery and purification system that is based on the concept that the waste products produced by one industry can reprocessed to become the raw materials for another industry.

1. The Development of our Chemical Recovery and Reuse Systems

Nagase has developed a Chemical Management System that is contributing to the realization of this goal. The system monitors the concentrations of chemicals used in the manufacture of semiconductors and LCD, makes the process more stable, and recycles and reuses waste chemicals. This technology provides an environmental friendly solution while meeting customer needs for reduced costs. The Chemical Management System been fully endorsed by one of our key customer Toshiba, who purchased the system in 2001 for its $1.8 billion Singapore plant AFPD, built to produce LCD.

It is for this purpose that Nagase followed up with the opening of a chemical recovery plant in Singapore in September 2001. The plant is capable both of producing the chemicals used to manufacture LCD, semiconductors and electronic devices, and of recycling those chemicals after use. Nagase FineChem Singapore is able to efficiently use limited resources by recovering, recycling and reusing the chemicals it produces and sells. The reduced emissions also lessen the impact on the environment. Designated a beneficial new corporation, the company has been granted "Pioneer Status" and the accompanying privileges from the Singapore government.

The Nagase Group is continuously building a network of manufacturing sites in Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and elsewhere for the production and sale of environmentally-friendly chemicals used in LCD, semiconductor and electronic devices manufactured throughout Asia and for the recovery and reuse of their related chemicals.
