Electron Accelerator Application |
[Opening Session]Dr Yuichi Michikawa, Deputy Director, International Nuclear and Fusion Affairs Division, Research and Development Bureau, Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and Dr Atsushi Tanaka, Deputy Director General, Takasaki Advanced Radiation Research Institute, Quantum Beam Science Research Directorate, National Institutes for Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology delivered remarks and expressed warm welcome to all participants. In addition, Mr Tomoaki Wada, FNCA Coordinator of Japan and Dr Hideki Namba, FNCA Advisor of Japan gave speeches to encourage active contribution from the participants for fruitful workshop. Then participants introduced themselves briefly. As a keynote speech, Mr Wada delivered a presentation for overview and progress of FNCA activities in 2016 - 2017 and introduced major successful results obtained. Then Dr Shotaro Ando, FNCA Biofertilizer Project Leader of Japan and Dr Masao Tamada, FNCA Electron Accelerator Application Project Leader of Japan introduced their project activity and major issues of this workshop respectively. [Open Seminar] "Application and Sustainable Development of Radiation Technology in Asia"Open Seminar on "Application and Sustainable Development of Radiation Technology in Asia" was jointly held by FNCA and QST/TARRI on 13th November 2017 and was attended by ca. 130 participants. The summaries of the seminar are attached as Annex 3. [Session 1 & 2] Country Report of Plant Growth Promoter (PGP) (EB Project)Ten countries delivered report on plant growth promoter (PGP) of Electron Accelerator Application Project respectively. The summaries of reports are attached as Annex 4. [Session 3] Report on Synergy Effect of Biofertilizer and PGP (BF Project)Eight countries delivered report on synergy effect of biofertilizer and PGP respectively. The summaries of reports are attached as Annex 4. [Session 4] Wrap-up of Synergy Effect on Biofertilizer and PGPSynergy effects of biofertilizer and PGP (oligo chitosan) were reported by Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mongolia, the Philippines, and Thailand. The synergy effects on rice were found by Bangladesh and Thailand while other counties show the positive effect on plant growth by combining biofertilizer and PGP. Bangladesh showed that grain yield increased up to 12% in semi-field test of rice plant. The combining effect of plant growth promoter and biofertilizer (Azospirillum) was greater than the sum of individual effects of PGP (4.5%) and biofertilizer (3.7%). Thailand showed that the synergy effect appeared in pot test of rice plant when chemical fertilizer level was reduced to 75%. Rice is an economically effective plant so that the obtained synergy effect is promising for socioeconomic benefit in participating countries. Summary for Result of Experiment on Synergy Effect on Biofertilizer and PGP [Session 5] Summary of Parallel Session and Exchange of ViewDr Ando reported a summary of the parallel session on Biofertilizer Project, and Dr Tamada reported a summary of parallel session on Electron Accelerator Application Project respectively and discussed on action plan in 2018-2020, followed by parallel session summary. The parallel session summary of the Biofertilizerproject is attached in Annex 5. [Closing Session]Minutes of the workshop were confirmed and agreed by all participants. It will be reported on 19th Coordinators Meeting. Dr Ando delivered a remark to close fruitful workshop and Dr Tamada expressed much appreciation from participants for contribution. Next workshop will be held in September or October 2018, in Kazakhstan. <Parallel Session>
The parallel sessions were attended by experts on applications of electron accelerator and radiation processing of natural polymers from ten (10)FNCA participating countries namely Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Mongolia, The Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. [Parallel Session 1] <PGP> Wrap-Up of Joint Session 1, Challenge and Progress for Commercialization of PGPDr Salma Sultana summarized the country reports presented at Joint Session 1, focusing on challenges and progress for the commercialization of PGP.The participants discussed on the theme after the lead speech.Discussion summary for this session is included in Parallel Session 2. [Parallel Session 2] <PGP> Wrap-Up of Joint Session 2, New Trials after Commercialization of PGPDr Marina Binti Talib summarized the country reports presented at Joint Session 2, focusing onnew trials after commercialization of PGP. Indonesia faces problem with the registration of the product (PGP). While Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand have already commercialized the PGP, other countries still need to do field test as follows:
Indonesia and Vietnam conducted study on the effect of oligochitosan as animal feedsupplement. It was further suggested to study the synergistic effect combining PGP with SWA. For the next phase, all members agreed to work on the usage of radiation processing for different application for health, agriculture and environment. [Parallel Session 3] <SWA> Country Report I, Current Status and Cost Effectiveness toward CommercializationFive (5) country reports on their current activities of SWA were presented emphasizing on the cost effectiveness of the product. The summary of each report is attached in Annex 6-1. [Parallel Session 4] <SWA> Country Report II, New Research and Obstacles after Commercialization of SWAFive (5) country reports were presented on the new research and obstacles after commercialization of SWA. The summary of each report is attached in Annex 6-1. [Parallel Session 5] <SWA> Wrap-Up of Parallel Session 3, Current Status and Cost Effectiveness toward CommercializationDr Darmawan Darwis, BATAN summarized the presentations of Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mongolia and the Philippines.Focus was given on the challenges for the commercialization of SWA. Discussions were as follows:
[Parallel Session 6] <SWA> Wrap-Up of Parallel Session 4, New Research and Obstacles after Commercialization of SWAMr Alexandr Borissenko from Kazakhstan summarized the reports given by China, Japan, Kazakhstan, Thailand and Vietnam. [Parallel Session 7] Coordination between FNCA and RCA/IAEA Projects on Radiation ProcessingDr Lucille V. Abad presented the IAEA RAS project on "Developing and up-scaling of radiation grafted materials for water treatment". The project will run for a duration of four years from 2018 to 2021. This project will have to be done by government parties in partnership with specific industries, government agencies or non-government agencies in the development of the radiation grafted materials to mitigate contaminants in waste water. Likewise, products will be tailored fit to the end user’s needs. This will promote the interest of the end-user and eventually may facilitate the technology transfer of products to industry. Requirements for participation of this project are as follows:
Joint meeting of IAEA and FNCA and other forms of collaboration should be considered in order to have more cooperation between IAEA and FNCA. [Parallel Session 8] Three-Year Evaluation and Proposal for Next PhaseDr Masao Tamada presented the achievements and future plans of the project, followed by the discussion of the participants. The major achievements in 3 years were as follows:
Other achievements and plansare summarized in the Table below. Table Achievements for 2017 and plans for next phase (2018-2020) These achievements are described in the Final Report of the Project. The participating countries discussed on new proposals for next FNCA phase. [Parallel Session 9] Briefing on Technical VisitDr Mitsumasa Taguchi, QST gave a briefing on the technical visit at Takasaki Advanced Radiation Research Institute. The participants visited TIARA, electron accelerator facilities, 60Coirradiator and science plaza of QST. [Parallel Session 10] Summary and Preparation for Joint Closing SessionDr Masao Tamada summarized overall parallel sessions for the preparation of closing session of Joint Workshop.
