Naskeo Environnement Research & Development programs

- Studies of dry matter, volatile matter, COD, NTK, Pt, AGV, Greases, Sugars, Proteins, Fibers
Study and extrapolation of the methane potential
 - Measurement of the methane potential methane by tests
Principle: establishment of anaerobic contact between muds and waste, and measure of the quantity and quality of biogas produced. Results: Anaerobic biodeterioration of waste and potential methanogene, (quantity of methane kg of waste)

• Post-treatment procedures

- Crystallization (ARITT)
Recovery of phosphates by struvite precipitation
Principle: addition of Mg2+ with pH 9 in order to precipitatie all phosphates
Results: output of precipitation and analysis of the obtained crystals

- Recovery of ammoniums by stripping

Principle: Tests of the process in column of 1m height of garnishing and 10cm of diameter Results: output of stripping according to the operating conditions, determination amongst stages necessary

- Re-use of water (API)

 Processes of post treatment allowing the re-use to irrigate the grounds

• Automation

- Research program ADD Control (European financing)

A.D.D. Control is a program grouping several european partners, of modeling and automation of the processes of methanisation. Naskeo belongs to the consortium of this program as an industrial expert to validate the relevance of this tool for control of the biological processes for the manufacturers and the owners.

• Micro-algae research program

- Coupling between micro-algae and anaerobic digestion

The program Symbiose, coordinated by Naskeo Environment, in partnership with the IFREMER/ECOLAG, INRA, INRIA is a programme of study of optimization of methanisation by the coupling MicroAlgues- Bactéries for the Energy production d' per Biological Way starting from Primary Biomass and of Organic Waste

Eco-evaluation of the processes of treatment and recycling

- Life Cycle Analysis

Evaluation of the environmental impacts of a produit/d' an activity by analysis from cradle to  tomb

- Carbone Assessment™

Carbone Assessment of a company or a community

Evaluation of the environmental impacts of the installations of Naskeo, and the new developed processes. Determination of the stages particularly impacting and the principal impacts to define the ways of research of improvement of the processes.
