PHOSLOOP aims to change the value of unused compost and realize a  circular society for phosphorus resources. Livestock manure, which is discharged in large quantities from pig farms every day, poses a challenge for farmers as it has a low fertilizer content and requires large-scale spreading. PHOSLOOP has developed biochar fertilizer by carbonizing this livestock manure and concentrating the fertilizer components. By processing it into a form that is easy for farmers to use, we contribute to the promotion of phosphorus resource circulation, CO2 reduction through carbon sequestration in the soil, and improvement in crop yield. With increasing global demand for phosphorus resources, the phosphorus market is expected to see significant growth. We aim to circulate phosphorus resources domestically, reducing reliance on imports and contributing to a sustainable future.

Pulmonary aspiration is said to be one of the main causes of deadly accidents in caregiving, and many cases of pneumonia, which is a leading cause of death in Japan, can also be attributed to pulmonary aspiration in the elderly.The financial burden and medical expenses associated with pulmonary aspiration are significant, and when considering the caregiving industry as a whole, opportunity loss and medical costs are at a scale where they can be called a social issue.
Biosono addresses the social issue of pulmonary aspiration by developing “Shokutsū”, a digital health product that utilizes acoustic sensing and AI technology. We aim to contribute to the reduction of aspiration-related medical expenses and preventing losses for caregivers. Simultaneously, we establish a unique position in the digital health care market by utilizing the secondary use of accumulated throat sound data.
