A turnkey project to measure and flare biogas in Chile

A turnkey project to measure and flare biogas in Chile

At the end of 2022, the Micr’Eau group delivered and installed a turnkey package including a 1500 Nm3/h Hofstetter flare and a biogas measuring container (by Endress Hauser) on the Yesca landfill (Rancagua region near Santiago de Chile) for the Veolia Chile group, International leader in urban solid waste management.

You can visit the project in 3D version here and discover each component of our supply. Micr’Eau worked on this project with its Chilean subsidiary which carried out the local part (civil engineering, electricity, assembly of skid flaring and measurement) in less than 5 months.

Our activities in the sale of filter media for drinking water

Our activities in the sale of filter media for drinking water

The Micr’Eau group has experience in more than one hundred arsenic treatment plant construction and maintenance sites carried out over the past fifteen years in France, Europe and South America.

We have deployed the Arsepur process adsorption filtration to capture arsenic using filter media such as GEH or Bayoxide, but also have developed service activities around the evacuation of saturated media and the installation of new media in France as in Chile with major accounts such as Saur, the SDEA or Aguas Andinas.

We are also available to smaller entities (communities) through our local networks of installers and regional partners. Finally, we ensure the supply of other filter media: activated alumina, mangagran and pyrolox for the treatment of fluorine, iron and manganese from our stocks in the Paris region and northern Chile.

In 2022, we supplied more than 300 T of media to our ten regular customers in drinking water, mineral water or industry.

Our activities in the mining sector in Chile

Our activities in the mining sector in Chile

The Micr’Eau group has two subsidiaries in Chile, one linked to the construction of its drinking water and biogas units, Micr’Eau-AEC, and a second company, ABM, linked to services and in particular to mining companies.

As part of these consulting and support missions, ABM is currently carrying out an audit for the Canadian company Teck, copper producer on the Quebrada Blanca 2 site at 4500 m altitude in northern Chile (near the Bolivian border) to improve the operation and maintenance of the drinking water treatment unit supplying the camp of more than 5000 miners.

Other studies and technical and logistical support projects are being set up, in particular with the companies Cobre y Metales (catodo verde project) and the lithium group SQM near Antofagasta.

Micr’Eau obtains the label of the Axelera competitiveness cluster

Micr’Eau obtains the label of the Axelera competitiveness cluster

Micr’Eau has just been labeled within the Axelera competitiveness pole, one of the largest in France (based in Lyon); it brings together several hundred companies (large groups, mid-caps and SMEs) whose activities are chemicals and the environment as well as the desire to expand internationally.

Our ambition by joining this cluster is to promote the development of our biogas activities in France and internationally, particularly in the field of gas treatment from landfills.

Through the CH4 booster technology development project (enrichment of landfill biogas with CH4), Micr’Eau applied for an Inov 10 program funded by BPI and Ademe, supported by Axelera’s technological experts, including IFP ENR and Suez.
