[0010] Equipment where heat exchange takes place or through which fluids flow can experience problems due to internal fouling. Traditionally, this fouling has often been dealt with through physical or chemical cleaning.

[0011] Unlike ultrasonic cleaning, which uses ultrasound to clean objects, ultrasonic pest control is a technology that uses ultrasound to suppress the adhesion of dirt to target equipment, and it can achieve various effects compared to physical cleaning and chemical cleaning. However, since ultrasound is invisible, and ultrasonic pest control suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment itself, it has sometimes been difficult to make customers recognize the dirt-preventing effect of ultrasound as part of their experience.

[0012] In particular, while ultrasound has been used to clean relatively small items such as eyeglasses and medical instruments, it is rarely used on an industrial scale. Therefore, there is often skepticism about the effectiveness of ultrasonic technology in industrial applications, making customer acquisition difficult. Furthermore, explaining the effectiveness and principles of ultrasonic technology in addressing dirt buildup problems on an industrial scale, and visualizing the installation of such equipment in industrial facilities, can be time-consuming and labor-intensive for such customers.

[0013] In addition, since the obstacle of dirt adhesion occurs daily in various facilities beyond the industrial boundary, there are many potential customers who recognize it as a problem. However, as a method of making many such potential customers recognize the efficacy and effect on dirt adhesion by ultrasonic technology through personal experience, explaining the principle phenomenon through on-site visits for each customer as in the past sometimes requires a great deal of cost from the perspective of labor, for example.

[0014] Therefore, the inventors considered that before explaining to customers in person, by utilizing the UI, introducing the cleaning and control effects of ultrasonic waves, and enhancing the image of actually installing on equipment, it might be possible to reduce the cost required for introducing ultrasonic technology and services in the first face-to-face meeting, for example. The inventors conducted intensive studies based on the above idea, and provided display control means 21a that associates and displays on the display unit 25 a first plant equipment image 111 corresponding to the first plant equipment in the first industry and a first suppression effect image 121 corresponding to the suppression effect by ultrasonic control means for suppressing dirt adhesion to the target equipment, which is the suppression effect of dirt adhesion to the first plant equipment. The first suppression effect image 121 includes a first application image 221a corresponding to the first plant equipment to which the first ultrasonic control means, which is the ultrasonic control means, is applied under the first application condition, and a second application image 221b corresponding to the first plant equipment to which the second ultrasonic control means, which is the ultrasonic control means, is applied under the second application condition. The first application condition is characterized by being different from the second application condition. It was conceived to make the user understand the suppression effect of dirt adhesion to plant equipment by ultrasonic control by the display control system of the present disclosure.

[0015] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described while referring to the drawings.

[0016] [Display Control System 1] FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of the display control system 1 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the display control system 1 includes a server 10 and a user terminal 20. The server 10 and the user terminal 20 can be connected to a network N such as the Internet. In FIG. 1, each of the server 10 and the user terminal 20 is shown as one unit, but the numbers of the server 10 and the user terminal 20 are not limited, and for example, there may be a plurality of each.

[0017] The server 10 is, for example, a server computer (information processing device). The server 10 includes a control unit 11, a storage unit 12, and a communication unit 13. The control unit 11 includes at least one processor. The control unit 11 executes processing according to a display control program and data stored in the storage unit 12. The display control program is, for example, a program for controlling the display of the display unit 25 of the display control system 1. The communication unit 13 is a communication interface for wired or wireless communication, and performs data communication via the network N.

[0018] The user terminal 20 is a computer operated by a user. For example, the user terminal 20 is a mobile phone (including a smartphone), a personal digital assistant (including a tablet computer or a wearable terminal), or a personal computer, etc. The user terminal 20 includes a control unit 21, a storage unit 22, a communication unit 23, an input unit 24, and a display unit 25. The physical configurations of the control unit 21, the storage unit 22, and the communication unit 23 may be the same as those of the control unit 11, the storage unit 12, and the communication unit 13, respectively.

[0019] The control unit 21 is configured using, for example, a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and memory (main memory). The control unit 21 functions as a display control means 21a when the processor executes a display control program. The display control program may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium. Computer-readable recording media include, for example, portable media such as flexible disks, magneto-optical disks, ROMs, CD-ROMs, and semiconductor memory devices (e.g., SSDs: Solid State Drives), as well as memory devices such as hard disks and semiconductor memory devices built into computer systems.

[0020] The input unit 24 is an input device, such as a touch panel, a pointing device like a mouse, a keyboard, or buttons. The input unit 24 transmits user operations to the control unit 11. The display unit 25 is, for example, a liquid crystal display unit or an organic EL display unit. The display unit 25 displays an image according to instructions from the control unit 21. The display unit 25 and the input unit 24 may be configured as a single touch panel.

[0021] The image data displayed on the web page 100 described later may be stored in the storage unit 22. The image data displayed on the web page 100 described later may also be transmitted and received between the server 10 and the user terminal 20. The display control program and data described as being stored in the storage unit 22 may be supplied via the network N. Furthermore, the hardware configuration of each computer described above is not limited to the examples above, and various hardware can be applied. For example, it may include a reading unit for reading computer-readable information storage media (e.g., an optical disc drive or memory card slot) and an input / output unit for inputting and outputting data with external devices (e.g., a USB port). For example, the display control program and data stored on the information storage medium may be supplied to each computer via the reading unit or input / output unit.

[0022] Next, we will describe the screen that the display control means 21a displays on the display unit 25. Figures 2 to 11 are examples of screens displayed on the display unit 25.

[0023] In this embodiment, we will describe the case where the screen displayed on the display unit 25 is a web page or a part of a web page. However, the screen displayed on the display unit 25 is not limited to a web page; for example, it may be a screen displayed on the display unit 25 of a user terminal 20 that is not connected to the internet.

[0024] The display control system 1 may consist solely of the user terminal 20.

[0025] The screen displayed on the display unit 25 is, for example, a part of a web page 100 as shown in Figure 2. Figures 3 to 11 below show parts of a single scrollable web page 100, and when the web page 100 of this embodiment is scrolled from top to bottom, the screens are displayed on the display unit 25 in the order of the figure numbers in Figures 3 to 11. The order in which the screens are displayed when the web page 100 is scrolled from top to bottom is not limited to the above. Note that in Figures 3 to 11, the illustration of some of the configurations of the web page 100 is omitted. Not all of the figures shown below are screens of a single web page that are displayed by scrolling. For example, the figures shown below may be displayed by navigating between web pages on a website.

[0026] The display control means 21a of the display control system 1 of this embodiment includes a first display control means and a third display control means. The display control means only needs to include the first display control means; it does not need to include the third display control means. The second display control means will be described later.

[0027] <First display control means> The first display control means of this embodiment displays the first web page 100 on the display unit 25. As shown in Figure 3, the first web page 100 introduces application examples of ultrasonic pest control means. The first web page 100 displays at least information about plant equipment (target equipment) to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied, and information about the effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment. Specifically, the first web page 100 displays a first plant equipment image 111 corresponding to the first plant equipment of the first industry, and a first suppression effect image 121 corresponding to the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, which is the effect of suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the first plant equipment, in correspondence. Displayed in correspondence means that the images are displayed in a way that allows the user to understand the correspondence, and for example, the images may be displayed on the same screen (display unit 25), or for example, the images may be displayed on the same web page. Displayed in correspondence does not mean that the images are displayed simultaneously on the same screen, but may mean that the images can be displayed simultaneously by changing the scale of the screen displayed on the display unit.

[0028] As shown in Figure 2, the first Web page 100 displayed by the first display control means of this embodiment displays a title image 150, an overall overview image 160, a plant equipment image 110, a suppression effect image 120, an industry image 140, and an individual overview image 170. Note that the title image 150, the overall overview image 160, the industry image 140, and the individual overview image 170 do not necessarily have to be displayed by the first display control means. The first industry icon 111a and the service icon 111b may also be superimposed on the industry image 140, as with the plant equipment image 110.

[0029] The following explanation will describe the case where the plant facilities displayed as application examples are the first plant facility in the first industry and the second plant facility in the second industry, but the number of plant facilities displayed as application examples is not limited to the above. The plant facilities displayed as application examples may be, for example, only the first plant facility in the first industry, or, for example, application examples of the first and second plant facilities as well as the third plant facility in the third industry may be displayed. For example, multiple examples applied to plant facilities in the same industry may be displayed. Specifically, for example, examples applied to the eleventh plant facility in the first industry and the twelfth plant facility in the first industry may be displayed.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first industry is the paper and pulp industry, and the second industry is the food industry, but the industry is not limited to the above and may be, for example, the mining, water treatment, petrochemical, or beverage industries. The first plant equipment is a black liquor concentration facility, and the second plant equipment is a heat sterilization facility, but the equipment to which it is applied is not limited to the above and may be, for example, a concentrator, a distillation column reboiler, a heating heater, etc. The plant equipment to which ultrasonic pest control means is applied is not limited and may include, for example, heat exchangers or equipment including product piping.

[0031] (Plant equipment image 110) Examples of plant equipment images 110 are shown in Figures 3, 4, 6, and 9. Plant equipment images 110 are images corresponding to plant equipment in an industry, and at least indicate the type of industry and the type of plant equipment.

[0032] The plant equipment image 110 shown in Figure 3 is the first plant equipment image 111, which corresponds to the first plant equipment of the first industry. Specifically, the first plant equipment image 111 indicates, using only textual information, that the first industry is the paper and pulp industry and that the first plant equipment is equipment related to the concentration process. The plant equipment image 110 shown in Figure 4 is the second plant equipment image 112, which corresponds to the second plant equipment of the second industry. Specifically, the second plant equipment image 112 indicates, using only textual information, that the second industry is the food industry and the second plant equipment is related to a heat sterilization process.

[0033] Even if a first plant equipment image 111 corresponds to a first plant equipment of a first industry, if multiple first plant equipment images 111 are displayed on the same web page, for example, the configuration of all displayed first plant equipment images 111 does not have to be identical. For example, the configuration of the first plant equipment image 111 may differ depending on the display position. The industry type and the plant equipment type may be represented by text information, or by predetermined icons or symbols. For example, the first plant equipment image 111 shown in Figure 6 may have an industry image as the background, the industry type may be indicated by an industry icon, and the plant equipment type may be indicated by text information. In the first plant equipment image 111 shown in Figure 6, the industry type is indicated by a first industry icon 111a, and the fact that ultrasonic pest control means are applied is indicated by a service icon 111b (e.g., ultrasonic pest control icon, smart operation icon). The service icon 111b corresponds to ultrasonic pest control means.

[0034] Similarly, the configuration of the second plant equipment image 112 does not have to be the same for all second plant equipment images 112 displayed on the same web page, for example; the configuration of the second plant equipment image 112 may differ depending on its display location. For example, as shown in Figure 9, the second plant equipment image 112 may have the same configuration as the first plant equipment image 111 shown in Figure 6. In the second plant equipment image 112 shown in Figure 9, the type of second industry is indicated by the second industry icon 112a, and the service icon 111b indicates that it is an example of applying ultrasonic pest control.

[0035] Industry icons only need to be icons that allow the type of industry to be identified, and the composition of industry icons is not limited to the example shown. The service icon 111b can be any icon configured to confirm that ultrasonic pest control has been applied, and the configuration of the service icon 111b is not limited to the illustrated example. The service icon 111b may be, for example, an ultrasonic pest control icon or a smart operation icon. Here, "smart operation" refers to an operation that reduces the viscosity of a fluid by irradiating it with ultrasound, etc.

[0036] In this embodiment, the first web page 100 only describes services related to ultrasonic pest control, but it may also include, for example, a description of services related to ultrasonic cleaning. If a description of services related to ultrasonic cleaning is included, for example, an image showing the cleaning effect when ultrasonic cleaning is applied may be included in the first web page 100. If a description of services related to ultrasonic cleaning is included, the plant equipment image 110 may include an ultrasonic cleaning icon. For example, the service icon 111b may be superimposed on the plant equipment image 110.

[0037] (Image 120 showing the suppression effect) The suppression effect image 120 is an image representing the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means, and corresponds to the suppression effect of preventing dirt from adhering to the target equipment. The suppression effect image 120 is not limited in its configuration and does not need to be an image that allows the user to recognize the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on preventing dirt from adhering to the target equipment. From the viewpoint of allowing the user to visually understand the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on preventing dirt from adhering to the target equipment, the suppression effect image 120 may be, for example, a graph showing the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on preventing dirt from adhering to the target equipment. The suppression effect image 120 may display the same suppression effect as a graph or as a text image, or the display mode may be switched. The switching of the display mode of the suppression effect image 120 may be performed, for example, when the input unit 24 receives input, the first display control means receives an instruction to switch, and the first display control means performs the switch according to the received instruction.

[0038] The suppression effect image 120 includes, for example, at least one of the following: adhesion period image 210, comparison image 220 (first application image 221a, second application image 221b), suppression period image 230, and improvement effect image 130. The suppression effect image 120 only needs to have at least the comparison image 220 (first application image 221a, second application image 221b), and does not need to have any other images.

[0039] As shown in Figure 3, the suppression period image 230 is an image corresponding to the period during which the adhesion of fouling to the plant equipment can be suppressed by the ultrasonic fouling means. The period during which fouling adhesion can be suppressed may be, for example, a period during which continuous operation is possible without cleaning the target equipment.

[0040] Comparison image 220 is an image that allows comparison between the degree of contamination of plant equipment when the first ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition (first condition) and the degree of contamination of plant equipment when the second ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition (second condition). Comparison image 220 of this embodiment includes a first application image 221a corresponding to plant equipment to which the first ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition, and a second application image 221b corresponding to plant equipment to which the second ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition. The first application image 221a and the second application image 221b of this embodiment are photographs of the heat transfer surface of the plant equipment. Comparison image 220 (first application image 221a, second application image 221b) is not limited to photographs. Comparison image 220 (first application image 221a, second application image 221b) is displayed in correspondence with the condition identification image 226. The condition identification image 226 is an image that shows information for identifying a condition. In the illustrated example, the condition identification image 226 includes a heading 226a for identifying the condition and a frame 226b that indicates that the image included in the range is the corresponding condition.

[0041] In the example shown in Figure 3, comparison image 220 includes condition image 225, which shows the conditions for either the first or second application condition. Therefore, a user viewing the screen shown in Figure 3 can understand the first and second application conditions by checking condition image 225. In the illustrated example, condition image 225 includes the following items: the intensity at which the ultrasonic decontamination means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment; the target condition for the degree to which the ultrasonic decontamination means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment; the number of ultrasonic transducers included in the ultrasonic decontamination means that are operated; and the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducers. However, condition image 225 is not limited to the illustrated example.

[0042] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, the first ultrasonic pest control means and the second ultrasonic pest control means are ultrasonic pest control means, and the first application condition is different from the second application condition. In this embodiment, the first application condition and the second application condition include the period for which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment, the intensity in which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, the target condition for the degree to which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, the number of ultrasonic transducers included in the ultrasonic pest control means that are operated, and the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducers.

[0043] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, "Period:●" is displayed as the period during which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment in the first and second application conditions; "Intensity:●" is displayed as the strength at which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment; "Weak operation," "Normal operation," or "Strong operation" is displayed as the target condition for the degree to which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment; "Transducer:● pieces" is displayed as the number of ultrasonic transducers included in the ultrasonic pest control means that are in operation; and "Transducer:●Hz" is displayed as the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducers.

[0044] Here, the intensity at which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment may, for example, indicate the output of the ultrasonic pest control means, or more specifically, the voltage applied to the ultrasonic generator of the ultrasonic pest control means. The target condition for the degree to which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment may, for example, indicate the operating mode of the ultrasonic pest control means. The operating mode may be, for example, a mode of operating intensity, a mode corresponding to a target such as CO2 emission reduction, or a mode corresponding to a target such as fuel consumption.

[0045] The first application conditions and the second application conditions differ in at least part of their conditions. For example, in this embodiment, the conditions include the period for which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment, the intensity in which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, the target condition for the degree to which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, the number of ultrasonic transducers included in the ultrasonic pest control means that are operated, and the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducers. "At least part of the conditions differ" may mean, for example, that at least one of the above application conditions is different. Specifically, for example, the intensity in which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment in the first application condition may differ from the intensity in which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment in the second application condition. The first application conditions and the second application conditions may differ entirely.

[0046] The ultrasonic transducer and its control device included in the ultrasonic pest control means (first ultrasonic pest control means) applied to the first plant equipment under the first application conditions, and the ultrasonic transducer and its control device included in the ultrasonic pest control means (second ultrasonic pest control means) applied to the first plant equipment under the second application conditions, do not have to be the same, and some or all of them may be different. For example, the ultrasonic transducer included in the ultrasonic pest control means applied to the first plant equipment under the first application conditions and the ultrasonic transducer included in the ultrasonic pest control means applied to the first plant equipment under the second application conditions may be different ultrasonic transducers. Also, the control device included in the ultrasonic pest control means applied to the first plant equipment under the first application conditions and the control device included in the ultrasonic pest control means applied to the first plant equipment under the second application conditions may be different control devices. Hereinafter, the first ultrasonic pest control means and the second ultrasonic pest control means may be simply referred to as "ultrasonic pest control means," but the ultrasonic transducer and its control device included in all ultrasonic pest control means are not limited to being the same.

[0047] Some or all of the items included as conditions may differ between the first and second application conditions. For example, as shown in Figure 12, the first suppression effect image 121 may include a third application image 221c corresponding to the first plant equipment to which a different pest control means is applied under the third application condition, instead of a second application image 221b corresponding to the first plant equipment to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition. In this case, the suppression effect image 120 only needs to have at least the comparison image 220 (first application image 221a, third application image 221c), and does not need to have any other images.

[0048] The pest control means for suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment may be a pest control means other than ultrasonic pest control means. A pest control means other than ultrasonic pest control means may be, for example, a pest control means using chemicals. When using a pest control means using chemicals, the third application condition may include items such as the type and amount of chemicals, the frequency of treating the target equipment with the chemicals, the amount of chemicals used, and the mixing ratio of the chemicals.

[0049] For example, if the pest control means for suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment is an ultrasonic pest control means and a pest control means using chemicals, the first application condition may include the period for which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment, the intensity to which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, the target condition for the degree to which the ultrasonic pest control means suppresses the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, the number of ultrasonic transducers included in the ultrasonic pest control means that are operated, and the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducers. The third application condition may include items such as the type and amount of chemicals, the frequency with which the target equipment is treated with the chemicals, the amount of chemicals used, and the chemical mixing ratio.

[0050] As shown in Figure 8, the improvement effect image 130 is an image showing various improvement effects by applying the ultrasonic pest control means to the target equipment. Here, the improvement effect refers to the specific effect that occurs as a result of applying the ultrasonic pest control means to the target equipment and suppressing the adhesion of dirt. The improvement effect may be at least one of the following, for example: improved productivity, reduced energy consumption, improved equipment damage, improved equipment operating rate, improved quality defects, reduced raw material loss, reduced cleaning-related costs, reduced carbon dioxide emissions (carbon price or carbon dioxide-related tax), and improved equipment damage. The improvement effect may differ depending on the type of industry and the type of plant equipment. In this embodiment, the types of improvement effects corresponding to the first plant equipment and the types of improvement effects corresponding to the second plant equipment are different.

[0051] Image 130 of this embodiment includes improvement effect icons. Each improvement effect icon corresponds to an improvement effect.

[0052] An example of the specific configuration of the suppression effect image 120 is shown in Figures 3, 4, 8, and 11. The suppression effect image 120 displayed in the first display control step of this embodiment is a first suppression effect image 121 corresponding to the first plant equipment of the first industry, as shown in Figures 3 and 8, and a second suppression effect image 122 corresponding to the second plant equipment of the second industry, as shown in Figures 4 and 11.

[0053] Figures 3 and 8 show an example of the first suppression effect image 121, which is the suppression effect image 120 corresponding to the first plant equipment of the first industry. The first suppression effect image 121 shown in Figure 3 will be explained below. The first suppression effect image 121 shown in Figure 3 includes the first suppression period image 231 and the first comparison image 221 (first application image 221a, second application image 221b).

[0054] Image 231 of the first suppression period is an image that shows the degree of adhesion when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment under various conditions, expressed over a period of time. Image 231 of the first suppression period in this embodiment shows that when the first ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment under the first application conditions, "dirt adheres to the heat transfer surface of the first plant equipment in about one month."

[0055] The first comparison image 221 is an image that allows comparison between the degree of contamination of the first plant equipment when the ultrasonic decontamination means (first ultrasonic decontamination means) is applied under first application conditions and the degree of contamination of the first plant equipment when the ultrasonic decontamination means (second ultrasonic decontamination means) is applied under second application conditions. The first comparison image 221 of this embodiment is a photograph of a part of the heat transfer surface of the first plant equipment. The first comparison image 221 of this embodiment includes a first application image 221a, which is a photograph of the heat transfer surface of the first plant equipment when the ultrasonic decontamination means is applied under first application conditions, and a first application image 221a, which is a photograph of the heat transfer surface of the first plant equipment when the ultrasonic decontamination means is applied under second application conditions. In addition, in the first application image 221a and the second application image 221b, one image may be displayed with emphasis on the other image. Emphasis may mean, for example, that one image is displayed larger than the other image. In this embodiment, the second application image is emphasized by being displayed larger than the first application image.

[0056] Figure 4, 11 shows an example of a second suppression effect image 122, which is a suppression effect image 120 corresponding to the second plant equipment of the second industry. The second suppression effect image 122 shown in Figure 4 will be explained below. The second suppression effect image 122 shown in Figure 4 includes the first suppression period image 231, the second comparison image 222 (first application image 221a, second application image 221b), the condition image 225, and the second suppression period image 232.

[0057] The second comparative image 222 is an image that allows for comparison between the degree of contamination of the second plant equipment when the first ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition (hereinafter also referred to as the first condition) and the degree of contamination of the second plant equipment when the second ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition (hereinafter also referred to as the second condition). The second comparative image 222 in this embodiment is a photograph of a part of the inside of the piping of the second plant equipment. The second comparative image 222 of this embodiment includes a first application image 222a, which includes a photograph 223a of the inside of the piping of the second plant equipment and a first fluid image 223b corresponding to the fluid flowing inside the piping (target equipment) of the second plant equipment when the first ultrasonic pest control means is applied under first application conditions, and a second application image 222b, which includes a photograph 224a of the inside of the piping of the second plant equipment and a second fluid image 224b corresponding to the fluid flowing inside the piping (target equipment) of the second plant equipment when the second ultrasonic pest control means is applied under second application conditions.

[0058] The first fluid image 223b and the second fluid image 224b are, for example, images showing the state of the fluid flowing inside the target equipment. The state of the fluid flowing inside the target equipment may be, for example, an image showing the amount of impurities contained in the fluid, or an image showing the viscosity of the fluid. The impurities contained in the fluid may be, for example, adhering substances such as burnt residue attached to the target equipment such as piping that have detached from the equipment and mixed into the fluid. In this embodiment, the fluid images (first fluid image 223b, second fluid image 224b) are magnified photographs of the fluid flowing inside the piping (target equipment) of the second plant equipment, and are images showing the amount of impurities contained in the fluid. The fluid images (first fluid image 223b, second fluid image 224b) are not limited to photographs, but may be, for example, tables or graphs.

[0059] As shown in Figure 4, the first suppression period image 231 (second suppression period image 232) is an image corresponding to the period during which the ultrasonic pest control means can suppress the adhesion of dirt to the second plant equipment. The first suppression period image 231 in this embodiment shows that when the first ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the second plant equipment under the first application conditions, the first plant equipment can be operated without CIP cleaning for one month, indicating that the period during which the adhesion of dirt to the second plant equipment can be suppressed is one month. The second suppression period image 232 in this embodiment shows that when the second ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the second plant equipment under the second application conditions, the second plant equipment can be operated without CIP cleaning for three months per season, indicating that the period during which the adhesion of dirt to the second plant equipment can be suppressed is three months.

[0060] Furthermore, even if the first suppression effect image 121 is a suppression effect image 120 corresponding to the first plant equipment of the first industry, if multiple first suppression effect images 121 are displayed on the same web page, for example, the configuration of all displayed first suppression effect images 121 (for example, the display form and content) does not have to be the same. For example, the configuration of the first suppression effect image 121 may differ depending on its position on the web page.

[0061] For example, the configuration of the first suppression effect image 121 shown in Figure 8 is different from the configuration of the first suppression effect image 121 shown in Figure 3. Next, the first suppression effect image 121 shown in Figure 8 will be explained below. The first suppression effect image 121 shown in Figure 8 includes three first improvement effect images 131 and a first suppression period image 231.

[0062] In the illustrated example, the first suppression effect image 121 includes three first improvement effect images 131: a productivity improvement effect image 131a, an energy consumption reduction effect image 131b, and an equipment damage improvement effect image 131c. The three first improvement effect images 131 of the first suppression effect image 121 include a first improvement effect icon 133 corresponding to each of the three first improvement effect images 131. Specifically, as shown in Figure 8, the productivity improvement effect image 131a includes a first improvement effect icon 133a, the energy consumption reduction effect image 131b includes a first improvement effect icon 133b, and the equipment damage improvement effect image 131c includes a first improvement effect icon 133c. In this embodiment, the first improvement effect icons 133a, 133b, and 133c are different.

[0063] Image 231 of the first suppression period is an image corresponding to the period during which the adhesion of dirt to the first plant equipment can be suppressed by the ultrasonic pest control means. Image 231 of the first suppression period in this embodiment shows that, when the ultrasonic pest control means was not applied to the first plant equipment, irregular cleaning was required 1 to 3 times in the winter, whereas since its introduction, cleaning due to sudden shutdowns has become unnecessary.

[0064] Similar to the first suppression effect image 121, the second suppression effect image 122 does not necessarily have to have the same configuration (e.g., display form and display content) if, for example, multiple second suppression effect images 122 are displayed on the same web page. For example, the configuration of the second suppression effect image 122 may differ depending on its position on the web page.

[0065] For example, the configuration of the second suppression effect image 122 shown in Figure 11 is different from the configuration of the second suppression effect image 122 shown in Figure 4. Next, the second suppression effect image 122 shown in Figure 11 will be explained below. The second suppression effect image 122 shown in Figure 11 includes three second improvement effect images 132 and a second suppression period image 232.

[0066] In the illustrated example, the second suppression effect image 122 includes three second improvement effect images 132: an equipment utilization rate improvement effect image 132a, a quality defect improvement effect image 132b, and a raw material loss reduction effect image 132c. The three second improvement effect images 132 in the second suppression effect image 122 include a second improvement effect icon 134 corresponding to each of the three second improvement effect images 132. Specifically, as shown in Figure 11, the equipment utilization rate improvement effect image 132a includes a second improvement effect icon 134a, the quality defect improvement effect image 132b includes a second improvement effect icon 134b, and the raw material loss reduction effect image 132c includes a second improvement effect icon 134c. In this embodiment, the second improvement effect icons 134a, 134b, and 134c are different.

[0067] In improvement effect images 130 showing different improvement effects, the same improvement effect icon may be included. Specifically, for example, as shown in Figures 8 and 11, the improvement effect icon in productivity improvement effect image 131a and equipment utilization rate improvement effect image 132a may be the same.

[0068] (Industry image 140) Industry image 140 is an image corresponding to a type of industry. Industry image 140 only needs to be an image that allows the user to recognize the type of industry, and its composition (e.g., display format and content) is not limited. Figure 5 shows an example of an industry image 140. The industry image 140 in this embodiment includes an image of the industry and the name of the industry. In the first display control step of this embodiment, six types of industry images 140 are displayed: mining, water treatment, petrochemicals, paper and pulp, food, and beverages. However, the types of industries and the industry images 140 displayed are not limited to these. The industry image 140 does not necessarily have to be displayed by the first display control step.

[0069] (Individual overview image 170) Individual overview image 170 is an image corresponding to an overview of the equipment to which ultrasonic pest control measures are applied. The first web page 100 of this embodiment includes a first individual overview image 171 that describes the overview of the first plant equipment and a second individual overview image 172 that describes the overview of the second plant equipment.

[0070] Figures 6 and 7 show an example of the first individual schematic image 171 of this embodiment. The first individual schematic image 171 of this embodiment is an image illustrating the outline of the black liquor concentration equipment, which is the first plant equipment. Figures 9 and 10 show an example of a second individual schematic image 172 of this embodiment. The second individual schematic image 172 of this embodiment is an image illustrating the outline of the heat sterilization equipment, which is the second plant equipment. Furthermore, the individual overview image 170 only needs to have a configuration that allows the user to check the overview of the target equipment, and the configuration is not limited to the example shown. The individual summary image 170 does not necessarily have to be displayed by the first display control step.

[0071] (Assignment image 180) Problem image 180 is an image corresponding to a problem with the target equipment. Problem image 180 is, for example, an image corresponding to a problem with the target equipment when ultrasonic pest control means are not applied to the target equipment. The first web page 100 of this embodiment includes a first problem image 181 that describes a problem with the first plant equipment and a second problem image 182 that describes a problem with the second plant equipment. Problem image 180 may be, for example, an image corresponding to a problem with the target equipment when ultrasonic pest control means are not applied to the target equipment under specific conditions. In this case, the specific conditions may be, for example, applying the first ultrasonic pest control means under first application conditions, or applying the second ultrasonic pest control means under second application conditions.

[0072] Figure 7 shows an example of the first problem image 181 of this embodiment. The first problem image 181 of this embodiment is an image illustrating the problems that arise when ultrasonic pest control is not applied to the black liquor concentration equipment, which is the first plant equipment. Figure 10 shows an example of the second problem image 182 of this embodiment. The second problem image 182 of this embodiment is an image that illustrates the problems that arise when ultrasonic pest control means are not applied to the heating sterilization equipment, which is the second plant equipment. Furthermore, the problem image 180 only needs to have a configuration that allows the user to identify the problems the target equipment faces when ultrasonic pest control is not applied to the target equipment, or when ultrasonic pest control is applied under specific conditions, and the configuration is not limited to the illustrated example. The problem image 180 does not need to be displayed by the first display control step.

[0073] Although further details are omitted from the illustration, as shown in Figure 2, the first web page 100 of this embodiment includes a title image 150 and an overall overview image 160.

[0074] Title image 150 is an image corresponding to the title of the website in this embodiment. The overall overview image 160 is an image configured to assist users in understanding the content displayed on the website of this embodiment. The overall overview image 160 may, for example, be an image corresponding to the service content or features to be provided. Specifically, it may be an image explaining the service content of the ultrasonic pest control means, an image explaining the features of the ultrasonic pest control means, or both. The overall overview image 160 may, for example, be an image corresponding to an overview of the company providing the service.

[0075] In addition, the first web page 100 may include an inquiry image and an FAQ image. The inquiry image is an image on a website that allows users to fill out and submit an inquiry. The composition of the inquiry image is not limited, but it may include fields for at least one of the following: inquiry type, company name, department name, name, email address, and message. An FAQ image is an image containing FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions), which are images corresponding to questions and answers related to the content of a website. For example, an FAQ image may be an image that compiles questions and answers that are relatively frequently asked by users. For example, an FAQ image may be an image that compiles questions and answers that are expected to be relatively frequently asked by users.

[0076] For example, the first application image may correspond to the first piece of equipment in the first plant facility to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition, and the second application image may correspond to the second piece of equipment in the first plant facility to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition. In this case, the first piece of equipment may represent a different piece of equipment from the second piece of equipment. For example, the first application image may correspond to the first process of the first plant equipment to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition, and the second application image may correspond to the second process of the first plant equipment to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition. In this case, the first process may represent a different process from the second process.

[0077] Specifically, as shown in Figure 13, for example, the first application image 221a is a photograph of the heat transfer surface of the heat exchanger (first equipment) of the first plant equipment applied under the first application conditions, and the second application image 221b is a photograph of the heat transfer surface of the heat exchanger (first equipment) of the first plant equipment applied under the second application conditions. Furthermore, among the multiple processes in paper and pulp manufacturing, the first application image 221a corresponds to the target equipment in the black liquor concentration process (first process) of the first plant equipment applied under the first application conditions, and the second application image 221b corresponds to the target equipment in the digestion process (second process) of the first plant equipment applied under the second application conditions.

[0078] As shown in Figure 12, an unapplied image 221d corresponding to a plant facility to which ultrasonic pest control is not applied may be displayed in association with the first applied image 221a and the second applied image 221b. In this case, the display control means 21a may output the adhesion period image 210.

[0079] The adhesion period image 210 is an image that shows the degree of adhesion over a period of time when ultrasonic decontamination measures are not applied. For example, the adhesion period image 210 may be an image corresponding to the period until the amount of fouling adhering to the plant equipment exceeds an acceptable level when ultrasonic decontamination measures are not applied. For example, the adhesion period image 210 may be an image corresponding to the period until new fouling adheres to the plant equipment when ultrasonic decontamination measures are not applied. New fouling adhering to the plant equipment may mean, for example, when fouling can be visually confirmed on the plant equipment.

[0080] Image 211 of the first adhesion period shows the degree of adhesion over time when ultrasonic decontamination is not applied to the first plant equipment during the concentration process. Image 211 of the first adhesion period in this embodiment shows that when ultrasonic decontamination is not applied to the first plant equipment, "dirt adheres to the heat transfer surface of the first plant equipment in about one month." The second adhesion period image 212 is an image that shows the degree of adhesion over a period of time when ultrasonic decontamination is not applied to the first plant equipment during the digestion process. The second adhesion period image 212 in this embodiment shows that when ultrasonic decontamination is not applied to the first plant equipment, "dirt adheres to the heat transfer surface of the first plant equipment in about two months."

[0081] <Third display control means> The third display control means displays the questionnaire form on the display unit 25. The third display control means in this embodiment displays a second web page including the questionnaire form on the display unit 25. As a method for transitioning from the first web page 100 displayed by the first display control means to the second web page, for example, one may select a specific image displayed on the first web page 100. The specific image may be, for example, a questionnaire request image that confirms consent to complete the questionnaire.

[0082] The structure of the survey form is not limited, but it may include at least one of the following: industry type, company name, name, email address, and type of equipment being considered. For example, a required response field may be set, where "required response" means that the survey cannot be submitted without providing a response.

[0083] The input unit 24, for example, is operated by the user and transmits the response items of the questionnaire form displayed by the display control means 21b (third display control means) of the control unit 21 to the control unit 11. The input unit may also transmit the input content to the control unit 11, for example.

[0084] The display unit displays a third suppression effect image corresponding to the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on the adhesion of dirt to the plant equipment, in response to the input in the input unit 24. "In response to the input in the input unit 24" may also mean that information entered by the user is transmitted by operating the input unit 24. Note that the third suppression effect image output here is different from the first suppression effect image 121 and the second suppression effect image 122.

[0085] The third suppression effect image may, for example, be detailed data on the effect of suppressing fouling adhesion when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to plant equipment under specific conditions (first application condition or second application condition). Detailed data may indicate data that shows a more detailed suppression effect than the suppression effect shown in the first suppression effect image 121 or the second suppression effect image 122. Detailed data may, for example, be the result of quantitative measurement and analysis of fouling adhesion to target equipment when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the target equipment under the first application condition or the second application condition. The third suppression effect image may be, for example, a graph showing the suppression effect, from the viewpoint of allowing the user to visually understand the effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing fouling adhesion. The third suppression effect image may be an image that shows only detailed data on the effect of suppressing fouling adhesion when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the first plant equipment under the first application condition or the second application condition, or an image that shows only detailed data on the effect of suppressing fouling adhesion when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied to the second plant equipment under the first application condition or the second application condition, or it may include both.

[0086] <Second display control means> Up to this point, the explanation has been given using the example of the first display control means displaying the first web page 100 on the display unit 25. However, the display control means 21a may also include a second display control means in addition to the first display control means. For example, the second display control means may display a third web page including industry images 140 on the display unit 25, allow the user to select the industry images 140 via the input unit 24, and the first display control means may display the first web page 100 including plant equipment images 110 and suppression effect images 120 on the display unit 25 in response to the selection of industry images 140. The third web page may be, for example, another web page within the website including the first web page 100, or a web page within another website.

[0087] Specifically, for example, if the second display control means displays a third web page including an industry image 140, and the user selects the first industry image 141, the first display control means displays the first plant equipment image 111 and the first suppression effect image 121 from the first web page 100 on the display unit 25.

[0088] [Display control method] The display control method of this embodiment includes a first display control step, a third display control step, an input step, and an output step. However, the display control method only needs to include the first display control step; it does not need to include the third display control step, the input step, and the output step. The second display control step will be described later.

[0089] <First display control step> In the first display control step of this embodiment, the first web page 100 is displayed on the display unit 25. The first web page 100 may be the same as described above, so its description is omitted here.

[0090] <Third display control step> In the third display control step, the third display control means of the control unit 21 causes the questionnaire form to be displayed on the display unit 25. In the third display control step of this embodiment, the control unit 21 displays the second web page, including the questionnaire form, on the display unit 25.

[0091] <Input Steps> In the input step, the user is prompted to input the answer items of the questionnaire form displayed by the control unit 21 in the third display control step via the input unit 24. The input step may also include, for example, transmitting the input content.

[0092] <Output Step> In the output step, in response to the input in the input step, the server 10 outputs a third suppression effect image corresponding to the suppression effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on the adhesion of dirt to the plant equipment. "In response to the input in the input step" may also mean that the information entered by the user in the input step is transmitted.

[0093] <Second display control step> The example described is when the first web page 100 is displayed on the display unit 25 by the first display control step, but a second display control step and a selection step may be included before the first display control step. For example, in the second display control step, the control unit 21 may cause the display unit 25 to display a third web page including industry images 140, in the selection step, the user may select an industry image 140 via the input unit 24, and in the first display control step, in response to the selection of industry images 140 in the selection step, the control unit 21 may cause the display unit 25 to display the first web page 100 including plant equipment images 110 and suppression effect images 120.

[0094] Specifically, for example, if a third web page containing industry image 140 is displayed by the second display control step, and the first industry image 141 is selected by the user in the selection step, the first display control step causes the first plant equipment image 111 and the first suppression effect image 121 of the first web page 100 to be displayed on the display unit 25.

[0095] Although one embodiment of this disclosure has been described in detail above with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment and may include modifications, combinations, deletions, etc., of the configuration that do not depart from the gist of this disclosure.

[0096] For example, by selecting a first industry image 141 displayed on the first web page 100, the first plant equipment image 111 and the first suppression effect image 121 within the first web page 100 may be displayed on the display unit 25. For example, the text included in the images is not limited to the illustrated examples. For example, in one embodiment of this disclosure, ultrasonic pest control is used as a pest control means to suppress the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment, but it is not limited thereto. For example, chemical pest control using agents such as scale inhibitors may be used as a pest control means to suppress the adhesion of dirt to the target equipment.

[0103] <6> the above <1> ~ <5> In the display control system, each of the first and second application conditions may include the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducer included in the ultrasonic pest control means. With this configuration, by examining the first application image and the second application image, the user can understand the difference in the driving frequency of the ultrasonic transducer included in the ultrasonic pest control means under the first and second application conditions, the effect of suppressing the adhesion of dirt to plant equipment when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition, and the effect of suppressing the adhesion of dirt to plant equipment when the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition, and can, for example, compare these effects.

[0104] <7> the above <1> ~ <6> In the display control system, the first application image corresponds to a first piece of equipment in the first plant facility to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition, and the second application image corresponds to a second piece of equipment in the first plant facility to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition, and the first piece of equipment may be different from the second piece of equipment. With this configuration, by checking the first application image and the second application image, the user can understand the effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the plant equipment in the first equipment of the first plant facility where it is applied under the first application condition, and the effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the plant equipment in the second equipment of the first plant facility where it is applied under the second application condition, and can, for example, compare these effects.

[0105] <8> the above <1> ~ <7> In the display control system, the first applied image may include a first fluid image corresponding to the fluid flowing inside the target equipment, and the second applied image may include a second fluid image corresponding to the fluid flowing inside the target equipment. With this configuration, the user can understand the state of the fluid flowing in the first plant facility where the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application condition, and the state of the fluid flowing in the first plant facility where the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application condition, by checking the first fluid image and the second fluid image. In addition, they can compare, for example, the effects of applying the ultrasonic pest control means under each condition.

[0106] <9> the above <1> ~ <8> In the display control system, the first application image corresponds to the first process of the first plant equipment to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the first application conditions, and the second application image corresponds to the second process of the first plant equipment to which the ultrasonic pest control means is applied under the second application conditions, and the first process may be different from the second process. With this configuration, by checking the first application image and the second application image, the user can understand the effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the plant equipment in the first process of the first plant equipment where it is applied under the first application condition, and the effect of the ultrasonic pest control means on suppressing the adhesion of dirt to the plant equipment in the second process of the first plant equipment where it is applied under the second application condition, and can, for example, compare these effects.

[0107] <10> the above <1> ~ <9> In the display control system, the first application image may include a first suppression period image corresponding to a period during which the ultrasonic pest control means can suppress the adhesion of dirt to the first plant equipment when applied under the first application conditions, and the second application image may include a second suppression period image corresponding to a period during which the ultrasonic pest control means can suppress the adhesion of dirt to the first plant equipment when applied under the second application conditions. With this configuration, by checking the first suppression period image and the second suppression period image, the user can understand the period during which the ultrasonic pest control means can suppress the adhesion of dirt to the first plant equipment when applied under the first application conditions, and the period during which the ultrasonic pest control means can suppress the adhesion of dirt to the first plant equipment when applied under the second application conditions. This allows the user to understand the specific degree of effectiveness of the ultrasonic pest control means based on the period during which dirt adhesion can be suppressed, and to compare, for example, its effectiveness.

[0108] <11> the above <1> ~ <10> In the display control system, the first suppression effect image may include a third application image corresponding to the first plant equipment to which a different pest control means is applied under a third application condition, instead of a second application image corresponding to the first plant equipment to which the second ultrasonic pest control means is applied under a second application condition. With this configuration, by comparing the first application image and the third application image, the user can understand the effect of using ultrasonic pest control to suppress the adhesion of dirt to plant equipment, and the effect of using a different pest control method to suppress the adhesion of dirt to plant equipment, and for example, they can compare these effects.
