Core offering

株式会社エイブル is a plant engineering company that handles the design, construction, and management of factory wastewater treatment equipment on a full turnkey basis. It supplies proprietary methane fermentation systems (Tokutoku-bububu), fixed biofilm reactors (Kaiten Jiraiya), sludge dewatering and drying units (K-Val, sludge dryer, Zita), dissolved air flotation systems, polymer flocculants, and supporting modules, together with after-sales maintenance, consumables, and chemical supply via its subsidiary ABLE Technical Support.

Product overview

株式会社エイブル is a wastewater treatment equipment company offering a comprehensive portfolio of treatment systems and components. The core product lineup centers on methane fermentation technology (とくとくーぶぶぶ) and fixed biofilm treatment (回転児雷也), complemented by ancillary treatment modules including Super-DAF dissolved air flotation, sludge dewatering (K-Val, ジータ), sludge drying, polymer dissolution systems, and activated carbon/catalytic oxidation systems. The company positions its め methane fermentation technology as enabling Scope 1/2/3 CO2 reduction by generating renewable biogas from wastewater while reducing electricity consumption and sludge generation.

Products and services

• Tokutoku-bububu (とくとくーぶぶぶ) methane fermentation wastewater treatment system Proprietary anaerobic digestion system for factories that produces biogas from wastewater for use as boiler fuel or power generation, cutting electricity costs and sludge generation while enabling decarbonization for food and high-BOD industrial wastewater customers.
• Kaiten Jiraiya (回転児雷也) fixed biofilm continuous washing wastewater treatment device Fixed biofilm reactor with over 400 installations nationwide that uses microorganisms on fixed carriers in the tank to deliver 5-10x treatment capacity of conventional activated sludge with low surplus sludge conversion, enabling direct sewer discharge with low effluent SS.
• K-Val (K-ヴァル) elliptical plate sludge dewatering machine Sludge dewatering machine using rotating elliptical plates combined with pressure plates to deliver higher performance and lower cost than conventional dewatering devices.
• Super-DAF super coagulation dissolved air flotation system Dissolved air flotation system that maximizes efficiency through stable pressurized water and efficient tank water flow, minimizing SS (suspended solids) outflow from wastewater treatment systems.
• Sludge dryer (汚泥乾燥機) Sludge drying system that dries and reduces the volume of dewatered sludge using steam and decompression, enabling dried sludge to be reused as fertilizer.
• Polymer automatic dissolution device (高分子自動溶解装置) Automatic polymer dissolution system that automatically dissolves polymer flocculant simply by replenishing the hopper, reducing operator labor and producing consistently concentrated dissolution liquid.
• Denharfloc polymer flocculant (デンハーフロック) Polymer flocculant product line offered in a wide range of grades and packaging for both coagulation and dewatering applications, supplied as a consumable.
• High-speed sedimentation device (高速沈殿装置)
• UASB-TLP high-load methane fermentation wastewater treatment device High-load anaerobic wastewater treatment device based on upflow anaerobic sludge blanket technology for high-strength industrial wastewater.
• Zita electric dehydrator (ジータ) Electric dehydrator for sludge dewatering, certified by the Japan Sewage Works New Technology Promotion Organization.
• Maintenance and chemical supply service via ABLE Technical Support subsidiary After-sales maintenance service for wastewater treatment equipment plus consumable and chemical (flocculant, reagent) supply, provided through wholly-owned subsidiary ABLE Technical Support established in 2013.
• AGH System sludge volume reduction device Sludge volume reduction device developed and delivered to customers to reduce sludge handling and disposal costs.
• Si Bore sludge-inverting screw press dehydrator Screw press sludge dehydrator using an inverting mechanism for sludge dewatering applications in industrial wastewater treatment plants.
• Activated carbon adsorption device (活性炭吸着装置) Activated carbon adsorption system used as a tertiary treatment module for removing residual contaminants from wastewater.
• Deodorizing device (脱臭装置) Scrubber-type and activated carbon type deodorizing systems for odor control at wastewater treatment plants.
• Catalytic oxidation device (触媒酸化装置) Catalytic oxidation system for advanced wastewater treatment applications.

Direct peers

• Suido Kiko Kaisha, Ltd. (水ing): Water engineering company offering design, construction, and O&M of water and wastewater treatment facilities, including industrial wastewater and sludge treatment. Competes in similar factory wastewater EPC contracts in Japan.
• Kobelco Eco-Solutions: Subsidiary of Kobe Steel focused on water and waste treatment EPC, including industrial wastewater plants and biogas/anaerobic digestion systems. Most directly comparable on the methane fermentation engineering side of ABLE's とくとくーぶぶぶ offering.
• Tsukishima Kikai Co., Ltd. Japanese engineering company providing industrial and municipal wastewater treatment plants, sludge treatment systems, and anaerobic digestion equipment. Directly comparable EPC + proprietary equipment model.
• Metawater Co., Ltd. Japanese specialist in water and wastewater treatment plants (municipal and industrial), formed from the merger of NGK Insulators' and Fuji Electric's water businesses. Competes head-to-head in industrial wastewater EPC and operates Japan's first commercial anaerobic digestion sewage-sludge plants.

Broad incumbents

• Xylem Japan: Global water technology major with a Japanese presence, supplying pumps, aeration, biological treatment, and digital monitoring for industrial and municipal wastewater. Competes with ABLE's broader equipment portfolio.
• Kubota Corporation (Water & Environment): Kubota's Water & Environment segment manufactures and installs decentralized wastewater treatment systems, including proprietary sewage and industrial treatment equipment. A broad incumbent with comparable biological/membrane treatment technology stack and stronger distribution.
• Organo Corporation: Established Japanese water treatment engineering firm serving semiconductor, pharmaceutical, food, and industrial customers with design-build-operate wastewater plants. Comparable in offering industrial wastewater treatment systems, though much larger and with broader end-market exposure.
• Kurita Water Industries: Japan's largest industrial water and wastewater treatment specialist, offering full-spectrum treatment systems, chemicals, and maintenance. Highly comparable customer base (food, beverage, chemical, electronics factories) but at far greater scale and broader service portfolio than ABLE.
• Veolia Water Technologies Japan: Japanese arm of global water-treatment major Veolia, offering industrial wastewater treatment systems and services to Japanese manufacturers. Competes for the same factory wastewater decarbonization RFPs ABLE targets.

Regional players

• Torishima Pump Mfg. Co., Ltd. Japanese pump manufacturer specializing in pumps for water, wastewater, and industrial applications, including sludge and biogas handling. Adjacent competitor for equipment packages bundled into industrial wastewater plants.
