Reducing Usage ポーカーゲームテキサス Materials

We are working hard to reduce the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス material that becomes waste after being introduced into the manufacturing phase. In addition to reducing and effectively utilizing natural resources, we also pursue the reduction ポーカーゲームテキサス energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, and costs from material manufacturing to the processing ポーカーゲームテキサス products.
　See below for information on our efforts for the effective use ポーカーゲームテキサス key materials at each site.

●Efforts at JAE
To reduce the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス material used in machining, JAE is working to purchase materials in ideal sizes. In order to reduce the volume ポーカーゲームテキサス gold used in gold plating in production, JAE is making ongoing efforts to implement efficiency improvements such as the management ポーカーゲームテキサス the proper metal plating area and its thickness speeding up the process. At the same time, it utilizes reusable parts ポーカーゲームテキサス production equipment and pursues the effective use ポーカーゲームテキサス resources and the reduction ポーカーゲームテキサス material and capital investment costs.

●Efforts at HAE
HAE is reducing the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス materials used by reducing the width ポーカーゲームテキサス metal materials used in presses and reducing pin protection materials. Molding materials are being reduced by downsizing unnecessaryspoolers/runners(*use cursor to view definitions) that are discharged when extracting molded products, improving the number, mold shape, and positioning ポーカーゲームテキサスgates(*use cursor to view definitions) when designing molds, and using hot runners and pulverizing equipment with spoolers/runners. We continue to improve the value ratio by reducing the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス newly purchased input materials through the use ポーカーゲームテキサス recycled materials and by reviewing materials that are subject to value-added disposal, which also helps to reduce waste.
　To reduce the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス gold used in gold plating, HAE is constantly making efficiency improvements such as in proper plating area as well as thickness management and speeding up the process. This has led to significant cost reductions. The feed rate has been increased and electricity utilized reduced by overhauling the fixtures and setting terms used in the plating system.

●Efforts at YAE
We are continuously promoting measures to reduce the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス materials used by downsizing press molds, revising the width ポーカーゲームテキサス metal materials used in presses, investigating the material yield, verifying and setting the minimum number ポーカーゲームテキサス turns for plating, and performing early detection ポーカーゲームテキサス key sample abnormalities. In addition, increasing the rate ポーカーゲームテキサス reuse ポーカーゲームテキサス molding materials, reducing input materials by promoting closed-loop-recycling ポーカーゲームテキサス product waste, and cutting down on the volume ポーカーゲームテキサス materials used by makingspoolers/runnersmore compact, result in significant CO₂reductions.

●Efforts at FAE
Efforts to improve the reuse rate for copper alloy electrode material used in the manufacturing process for mold parts (discharge machining) are contributing to a reduction in the quantity ポーカーゲームテキサス material used, electric power, and the metal waste generated. It also introduced a special processing machine for cutting the plate material to reduce the margin for grinding, enabling effective use ポーカーゲームテキサス materials.

●Efforts at SAE
The SAE site continues to focus on reducing cutting processes. These efforts contribute to reduced metal waste, as well as lower CO2 emissions during material production.

Conservation ポーカーゲームテキサス Water Resources

Japan may appear to be a country with abundant water resources, but it is actually said to be the world’s largest importer ポーカーゲームテキサスvirtual water(*use the cursor to view definition). Around the world, we see explosive population growth as well as drought and other abnormal weather conditions that result in many people being unable to obtain one-tenth ポーカーゲームテキサス the daily water that a person requires.
　The public expects companies to take initiatives to ensure the sustainable use ポーカーゲームテキサス water resources. This is seen as a global issue, like others addressed by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted at the United Nations in 2015. As a responsibility ポーカーゲームテキサス a manufacturer with a plating line that uses a large amount ポーカーゲームテキサス water, we have continued to report our work to preserve water resources since our 2015 environmental report.

2015: Water input volume in sales per unit based on water conservation
2016: Water resource circulation balance was put into a visually readable format at JAE
2017: Water Risk Assessment (using WRI Aqueduct) at JAE compared with CDP, and water resource management goals and PDCA cycle compared with SDGs
Since 2018: Water data survey ポーカーゲームテキサス the supply chain Understanding water consumption

Here are reported examples ポーカーゲームテキサス reducing water usage and the status and challenges ポーカーゲームテキサス new initiatives.

●Examples ポーカーゲームテキサス reducing water usage
We will present some examples ポーカーゲームテキサス activities conducted by the JAE Group in Japan and overseas to reduce water usage through the protection ポーカーゲームテキサス forests to conserve water resources, and the cleaning ポーカーゲームテキサス rivers and seacoasts. (Items in parentheses are abbreviations ポーカーゲームテキサス production site names.)

Water saving in production: Recycling water in the connector product plating line (JAE, HAE, JAE OR, JAE TW), on/ポーカーゲームテキサスf controls for water usage on each cleaning line, installing an evaporation prevention cover (JAE OR), changing water required for cleaning the plating line from running water to mist blown water (HAE), circulating pure water used for cooling chiller (HAE), and recycling water used for machinery and equipment (JAE TW). Also limiting users in processes where large volumes ポーカーゲームテキサス water are required for cleaning and creating specialized faucets that are opened with keys (JAE WJ).
Water saving in lifestyle: Adjusting water volume used in air conditioning cooling towers, recycling wastewater, using rainwater for toilets (JAE PH), using cooling tower drain water for toilets (JAE PH), changing from buried pipes that supply water for living to above-ground piping for the early detection ポーカーゲームテキサス leaks and repair (JAE PH), educating about water saving using labels on water conservation in restrooms (JAE PH, JAE WX), adjusting the water volume discharged from faucets (JAE WX), installing meters showing how much water is used in cooling towers (JAE WX), raising water conservation awareness, and adopting water-saving sensors (JAE WJ).

Although the water input volume per unit is gradually decreasing due to the activities shown in the reduction example above, it appears that we need to take further steps to improve both production efficiency and reduction measures to prevent the impact ポーカーゲームテキサス external turmoil such as deteriorating production efficiency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic that started in fiscal 2020.

Supply Chain Development
In 2017, we began to monitor water usage throughout the supply chain pertaining to the procurement ポーカーゲームテキサス materials by the JAE Group, aiming to make more effective use ポーカーゲームテキサス water resources across the life cycle.
　Following last year’s environmental report, we monitored the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス water used with the following two methods. This year, as a result ポーカーゲームテキサス aggregating and then narrowing down the target to primary business partners, we were able to obtain nearly the same results in the two survey methods. It was found that water usage related to the procurement ポーカーゲームテキサス plated steel accounts for most ポーカーゲームテキサス the entire supply chain. Although there were calculation errors in the total amount ポーカーゲームテキサス water used due to the factors below, we will keep improving data accuracy throughout the supply chain, and we also plan to conduct ongoing surveys to raise awareness ポーカーゲームテキサス water as a valuable resource.

Discrepancy with actual conditions due to the limited types ポーカーゲームテキサス coefficients ポーカーゲームテキサス water use for plating-related businesses in the “Water Footprint” database.

Survey method and FY2021 result summary (target: primary business partners)
1. As a part ポーカーゲームテキサス the environmental quality checks we conduct as we pursue green procurement, water usage volume was included on the check sheet in the survey on actual water usage. The annual usage volume was 1,068 thousand m³.
2. Based on estimates using the “Water Footprint” database released by Tokyo City University, annual water usage was 1,050 thousand m³.

Water “Consumption” Survey
While considering policies to further reduce water usage, we surveyed consumption in the water circulation cycle at worksites. After surveying the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス evaporation from production and air conditioning equipment, the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス food and drink consumed at the Company’s welfare facilities, the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス watering ポーカーゲームテキサス areas ポーカーゲームテキサス greenery, and the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス evaporation from other facilities, we found that there was a difference between the estimates and meter readings in the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス evaporation from the air conditioning cooling towers.
　Just as last year, as a result ポーカーゲームテキサス checking the water supply, the difference was 5.1 times. A difference ポーカーゲームテキサス 4 to 7 times, depending on yearly weather conditions, was expected, but the ratio ポーカーゲームテキサス consumption to input has not changed much for the past 4 years, and is about 13%.
　Below are the annual estimates ポーカーゲームテキサス consumption by the domestic Group for the past 4 years and the breakdown for fiscal 2021.
　Measures to reduce water usage had a major effect on air conditioning equipment, so as an effective measure, we will install meters whenever possible to monitor the amount ポーカーゲームテキサス evaporation.

FY	Consumption	Estimated evaporation/Measured value*	Consumption/Input
2018	46,269 m³	4.4	14.1%
2019	38,894 m³	6.5	13.3%
2020	40,916 m³	5.3	12.8%
2021	42,970 m³	5.1	12.6%
Evaporation from cooling/production	93%	(*) Results ポーカーゲームテキサス a comparison ポーカーゲームテキサス air conditioning cooling towers where actual measurements were available.
