The present invention relates to a simulation system for simulating the effect of application.

Currently, reduction of carbon dioxide has become a major international trend as a measure against global warming, and businesses that own facilities are required to reduce carbon dioxide emitted from the facilities.
Conventionally, as a method for reducing carbon dioxide discharged from a facility, one in which a carbon dioxide treatment facility for chemically treating carbon dioxide is provided in the facility is known.

  However, the conventional carbon dioxide reduction method described above does not generate new revenues only due to the loss related to the introduction of carbon dioxide treatment facilities, etc., which hinders businesses to work on the reduction of carbon dioxide, There was a problem that the reduction of carbon dioxide emitted from the plant did not proceed well.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its main problem is to reduce carbon dioxide emitted from facilities by businesses by generating new profits along with the reduction of carbon dioxide. The object is to provide a carbon dioxide reduction method and a simulation system which can be promoted.

The first characteristic configuration of the present invention relates to a carbon dioxide reduction method,
Carbon dioxide generated at the facility is supplied to the cultivation house that cultivates the plant to be sold, and the carbon dioxide is absorbed by the plant to be sold in the cultivation house to reduce the carbon dioxide emitted from the facility and The point is to increase the growth speed.

  According to the said structure, although the expense which concerns on supply of a cultivation house or carbon dioxide arises as a loss, in addition to the reduction of a carbon dioxide, and also by the sale of the sales object 2a using the carbon dioxide which should be reduced New revenue can be generated efficiently, which makes it easier for businesses to work on the reduction of carbon dioxide emitted from facilities and greatly promotes the reduction of carbon dioxide on a global scale.

Calculate the amount of carbon dioxide emissions (the amount of carbon dioxide generated in the facility converted into money) as the current evaluation value with the simulated means, and the calculation result with the output means Forces.

  In other words, the amount of carbon dioxide emissions after the introduction of plant-based treatment facilities and the cost required for the introduction, operation, and maintenance of plant-based treatment facilities and the cultivation, harvesting, and sales of plants to be sold are assumed to be virtual losses. By calculating the evaluation value with the sales amount of the target as revenue, and also calculating the current evaluation value with the current loss as the amount of carbon dioxide emissions before the introduction of plant-based treatment equipment, This makes it easier to understand the effects of applying a carbon dioxide reduction method using plant-based treatment equipment as a difference from the current situation, thereby encouraging businesses to reduce carbon dioxide emitted from the facility. be able to.

  According to a fifth characteristic configuration of the present invention, the simulation means sells, as the evaluation value, an evaluation value when a rose as a plant to be sold is sold as a preserved flower, and a rose as a plant to be sold as a fresh flower. It is in the point which is comprised so that the evaluation value of can be calculated.

  According to the above configuration, roses that are highly evaluated as objects to be sold are sold as preserved flowers with a high unit sales price (so-called "brizzled flowers"), and the sales unit price is lower than the preserved flowers, but is required for growing, harvesting and selling. It becomes possible to search for a method that makes it easy to tackle the reduction of carbon dioxide emitted from the facility by comparing it with the case where it is sold as a fresh flower with low cost.
