Technology to prevent alkaline pollution

Overview

Important materials in museums, art galleries, archives, etc. tend to avoid alkaline substances. But, in buildings made of concrete, alkaline substances that have an adverse effect on the stored collections are released from the concrete into the room immediately after construction. Therefore, before storing materials, it is required to remove and control alkaline substances in concrete. However, the general construction methods takes a long time to perform these processes. TODA Corporation possesses a method of removing alkaline substances in a short period of time by applying a special treatment to the concrete immediately after construction to promote the dissolution and dissipation of alkaline components.
