Abstract
Though a lot of water purification equipments are used in Japan and collected by the suppliers after a sage, they are not adequately recycled or reused due to the high cost of reproduction. We investigated the feasibility of three proposed equipments (cartridge) to construct a new recycling system, considering all through the cost of production and recycling, and environmental load. As a result of analysis, application of polypropylene as main cartridge material was found to be the best one for establishment of fundamental purpose
