Patent ID: 8521573

Claim:
A system for supporting the selection of a subject for restriction countermeasure wherein an enterprise selects a subject for countermeasure for compliance with a restriction to limit a content rate or content amount of a chemical substance of a product coming in or going out from the enterprise, the system comprising: a memory unit configured to memorize, by composing a first database having data of at least a product ID of the product, a component ID composing the product, and number of the components, a second database having data of at least a component ID of the components, weight, a component category ID, and a flag indicating presence or absence of chemical substance information, a third database having data of at least a component ID, a chemical substance ID which the components contain, and a content rate of the chemical substance contained in the components, and a fourth database having data of at least a restriction name, restriction contents, threshold values, and units; an input-output unit; and a calculation unit; wherein said input-output unit is configured to accept from a user, information on a subject product which is subjected to inspection of a compliance situation to said restriction, and information on evaluation subject restrictions, wherein said calculation unit is configured to effect operations of: searching the components composing said subject product from said first database, and extracting from them the components whose information on chemical substances contained is unknown, according to the flag showing presence or absence of the chemical substance information of said second database; extracting similar components having the same components category ID as the components category ID of said unknown components extracted, and represented as having the chemical substance information by the flag showing presence or absence of chemical substance information, by searching said second database; reading out the chemical substance content rate of said similar components from said third database, and allocating a statistic value of the content rate to every chemical substance, as the chemical substance content rate of said unknown components; calculating the content rate of a product chemical substance of said subject product, according to the content rate of the chemical substance of said unknown components allocated, and the chemical substance content rates of the whole components composing another product other than said unknown components read out from the third database; and comparing said calculated product chemical substance content rate with the threshold value for said evaluation subject restriction read out from the fourth database, and outputting the comparison result on whether the product chemical substance content rate of each chemical substance is exceeded, equivalent or lower than said threshold value on the display device of said input-output unit.
