Abstract: An information storage unit stores a refrigeration apparatus in association with operation condition information about operation conditions of the refrigeration apparatus, and an information terminal of a user or an information terminal of a shop, the user or the shop being in charge of a regular inspection of the refrigeration apparatus. An information processing unit generates regular inspection information to be used for the regular inspection of the refrigeration apparatus based on the operation condition information associated with the refrigeration apparatus in the information storage unit, the regular inspection information including items related to the operation conditions of the refrigeration apparatus, and sends the regular inspection information to the user's information terminal or the shop's information terminal which is associated with the refrigeration apparatus in the information storage unit.

Abstract: A process for bleaching chemical pulp for paper manufacturing comprising delignifying and bleaching chemical pulp which has been treated by cooking by simultaneous use of chlorine dioxide, a peroxide, and at least one reaction catalyst selected from the group consisting of oxoacids of elements of Groups IV, V and VI and salts of these acids. Formation of organic chlorine compounds as by-products is suppressed by decreasing the amount of chlorine dioxide used in the ECF bleaching process in the first stage, and thus environmental toxicity in the waste water discharged from the bleaching process is decreased. Chemical pulp having a high degree of brightness is economically produced because increase in the production capacity is not required at all or suppressed to the minimum, and the investment cost is reduced to the minimum when the bleaching with chlorine in the first stage is converted into the bleaching with chlorine dioxide which is an ECF bleaching process.
