▼Activities
Escot, a non-profit organization, was established in 1997 with the main purpose of reducing the environmental impact of international transportation.
Later, it merged with Soft Energy Research Institute and became an NPO in 2002.
Our activities involve developing and providing society with know-how, equipment, and systems specific to environmental and energy issues.
Main accomplishments:
1) Cultivation of vegetables such as water spinach on the surface of Lake Teganuma in Chiba Prefecture, which had the highest eutrophication level in Japan = “Lake Farming Method”
2) Development of an ultrasonic device that performs aeration using the photosynthetic ability of algal blooms = “Blue-green Algae Buster”
③ Developed a DIY solar heat recovery system using improved hollow polycarbonate resin = “Heator Panel”
④ Developed a “disaster prevention eco-window fitting” that allows window glass to be multi-layered reinforced from the outside by DIY
⑤ Continuous round-trip use of international ocean container land transportation became an industry standard ni = “container round use”
*Floating organic cultivation of water spinach = food production using deposited nutrients, no pesticides, no fertilizers, and no chain problems
*Ultrasonic waves destroy only the swim bladder inside algae cells = Photosynthesis occurs on the bottom mud, which is a means of increasing oxygen concentration in the water.
* Photo left: Normal blue-green algae / Photo right: Blue-green algae whose intracellular swim bladder was crushed by ultrasonic waves
*DIY multilayer reinforcement of window glass from the outside using special metal fittings = Prevents windows from breaking due to typhoons and gusts and saves energy
*Reinforcement of cracked fishery cooperative windows facing the sea
*Water cooling = radiant heat recovery by hanging panels with water channels on the ceiling. The water that has absorbed heat is used in toilets, etc.
