Wastewater

Japan is one of the most water-rich countries in the world. However, if the quality of environmental water becomes contaminated, it would take a long time and much effort to recover. After World War II, Japan achieved dramatic economic growth, but the development of industry caused various pollution problems including water pollution and posed a major threat to human health and cultural life. Now regulations concerning the environment, particularly water quality, are strictly managed.

For accurate analysis, ensuring the reliability of reagents, standards, and test methods is very important. FUJIFILM Wako develops many products, such as analytical standards and test kits, conforming to Japanese regulations for water and environmental pollution.
