  *1 Includes valuable materials
  *2 Includes residue after intermediate treatment outside the Group company
  *3 Includes specially controlled industrial waste
  *4 We consider waste collected to be the amount of resources recycled.
  *5 The value obtained by subtracting valuable materials/hazardous waste generated from waste generated.
  *6 Recycled percentage of waste generated excluding valuable materials

Water quality survey: "COD emissions", "total nitrogen emissions in drainage", and "total phosphorus emissions" are not disclosed because the values are minimal. Since the Taiyo Nippon Sanso group mainly uses these materials for indirect cooling, the burden on water quality is minor.
In Taiyo Nippon Sanso and its subsidiaries in Japan, there are five establishments where wastewater is subject to COD, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus concentration regulations. The total COD, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus emissions from those five establishments are fewer than 1 ton each.
