Shinshu University will participate in the "Japan Fair" business exhibition, organized by the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO), at the 9th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD9). Our exhibit will focus on our Aqua Regeneration (ARG) technology. We will showcase how Shinshu University's advanced ARG technologies, including water regeneration and green hydrogen energy, can contribute to addressing urgent global challenges like water scarcity and climate change.

The exhibition booth is organized primarily by the Institute for Aqua Regeneration, which was established in March 2024 under the leadership of Distinguished Professor Katsuya TESHIMA. The booth will also feature introductions to research units led by individual researchers.

The exhibit will cover a wide range of technologies, including:

Energy-saving water purification and regeneration technologies, such as crystal materials grown using the flux method, innovative advanced reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, and aquatic microorganisms.

Green hydrogen production through artificial photosynthesis.

Nanocarbon batteries.

Hydrogen isotope separation technology for water resources.

Biodegradable bioplastics.

Under the theme of "Shaping the Future of Water and Energy Together," Shinshu University aims to be a collaborative partner in solving global issues by working with African and international organizations to promote co-creation-based technology development.
