The Zero Emission concept proposed by the United Nations University aims to approach the ideal of zero environmental stress by suppressing resource consumption and minimizing waste. Toward this end, EBARA has been devoted to developing comprehensive approaches through environmental engineering.

Since the Industrial Revolution, the pace of natural resource consumption and waste production has been accelerated at great cost to mother earth. Now, the world must accept the challenge of making further development acceptably sustainable. In other words, society must take new approaches to develop industries, economies and lifestyles. As a means of achieving this objective, the Zero Emission concept can contribute to creation of more effective technology, new production process, as well as conservation and recycling of natural resources including waste into energy.

Now is the time to share a commitment in our common interest. All of us - as participants in communities entailing business, government, and society at large - can collaborate on practical applications of the Zero Emission concept.

EBARA is working hard to harmonize the need to develop and the need to maintain quality of life on a global basis. More than ever, we share a responsibility for life on earth, and need to ensure that our water, air, land, and other vital resources are restored and maintained. As we approach the 21st century, Zero Emission will be a key to advancing sustainable development as a way of life.

As a total environmental engineering company committed to the Zero Emission concept, EBARA is making an invaluable contribution; like a vein serving to maintain the health of society's infrastructural and industrial arteries. Conservation can create valuable resources. We're transforming the one-way flow of resource consumption and waste production into a sustainable circulating flow by processing what would otherwise into "feed stock" raw materials for industry.

The Zero Emission concepts would lead to application of conservation technologies that minimize waste and maintain purity of water, air and soil. EBARA is focusing on the future by developing hardware and processes for the new recycling, maintenance, and production systems required to realize the concept.
