PurposeTo support the dissemination of excellent water treatment technologies made by Japanese
private companies to foreign countries.
To support the improvement of water environment in Asian countries by disseminating
Japanese water treatment technology.

MethodMinistry of Environment seeks publicly appropriate technology from Japanese privatecompanies. Selected companies will be supported financially by MOEJ.
Selected companies shall conduct a Feasibility Study in the first year and a Pilot Project after
the second year as well as develop business models through advertisement of the applied
technology .
Projects can disseminate the applied technology to other areas as well as contribute to water
environment improvement in the country.

Outcome・Issue
To have selected 19 projects for 6 years.
8 projects in Viet Nam, 2 projects in China, India, Indonesia and Malaysia,1 project each in
Philippine, Myanmar, and the Solomon Islands.
Domestic wastewater treatment, Industrial wastewater treatment, Phosphorus resource
recovery system, control of Non‐point source pollution.
The smooth operation needs cooperation from local actors including the government. In
addition to pricing, the legal system and maintenance management of the local government
Ministryof theEnvironment in commercialization.
