Series of biogas modernization and after-sales contracts in France and Chile

Series of biogas modernization and after-sales contracts in France and Chile

Micr’Eau and its Chilean subsidiaries AEC and ABM are carrying out several biogas projects at the end of 2022 with its loyal customers Urbaser (European leader in the treatment of household waste by methanization), Veolia Haut de France, Tereos (world leader in sugar), Aguas Andinas (Veolia Water)

These operations concern the complete renovation of gasometers, flares or after-sales service and expertise contracts at the request of its Franco-Chilean customers.

The Micr’Eau group thus confirms its expertise in the value chain of the production and operation of the biogas sector and can therefore strengthen its qualified technicians and engineers in our engineering, maintenance and operation of biomethane units.

ABM (Andes Bio Medio) wins a technical expertise contract with the Canadian mining group Teck in Chile on the Quebrada Blanca 2 site

On this copper mine where the largest mining investment in South America of the decade was made ($ 5 billion) to extract and produce copper at 4500m altitude, the Canadian group Teck has entrusted an expertise on water to ABM our subsidiary services in Chile to determine the best possible maintenance on its drinking water units (150 m3 / h including iron / manganese treatment, arsenic treatment and reverse osmosis followed by remineralization).

Thanks to our geographical location in the north of the country (Antofagasta region), ABM is ideally placed to serve its mining customers (Lithium, Copper). Above is the mining camp of its Chilean partner Cobre y Metales from where ABM operates.

Micr’Eau wins the tender for the modernisation of the biogas flares at the Talagante wastewater treatment plant in Chile

Micr’Eau wins the tender for the modernisation of the biogas flares at the Talagante wastewater treatment plant in Chile

Micr’Eau-AEC wins the tender launched by Aguas Andinas for the modernization of the biogas flaring line of the Talagante wastewater treatment plant (250,000 eq Hab); this file includes the installation of a new generation flare and the safety of the existing line. This turnkey project of about 180,000 euros represents 4 to 5 months of construction for our Franco-Chilean teams.

In the coming weeks, Micr’Eau is due to deliver an important project for the Veolia group in Chile: the supply of a flare and a measurement line for gases entering the combustion sector such as CH4 and CO2 in order to benefit from the Kyoto Protocol tariff, reserved for developing countries.

This project of more than 6 months carried out between the France, the Netherlands and Chile represents a value of several hundred hours of engineering and manufacturing follow-up.

Above is the base of the flare and its biogas compressors in the plant control phase, before its departure to Chile for the waste treatment and storage unit in the Rancagua region (500,000 inhabitants served operated by Veolia’s waste subsidiary)

Cluses: a new biogas storage operation on a digester for the Suez group

Cluses: a new biogas storage operation on a digester for the Suez group

Micr’Eau completes the installation of a gasometer on the digestion unit of the Cluses wastewater treatment plant in the Alps, managed by the Suez group. This is the second project this year for this type of work after the construction site in the east in Benfeld.

The great advantage of this storage technology is the economy of civil engineering and the reduced footprint for the builder of the wastewater treatment plant. Our teams have already installed a dozen of these storage units around the France for urban, industrial and agricultural sites.
