VERITE : Bioenvironmental technologies



Verité is a french company specialized in technologies applied to the environment. The company offers to both industry and local authorities,  two products : Avelbio®, the biological treatment of piped odours by bioscrubbing, and Orgawatt®, energy production from biomass and organic waste gasification.Vérité has developed a technological expertise in the biological treatment of piped odours and in energy production from biomass and organic waste gasification. Being environmentally conscious, Vérité includes improvements in working conditions and the acceptance of its projects on social and economic grounds in its approach.

Avelbio 

The bioscrubbing process eliminates odours found in piped gaseous effluents.The process is based on a two-stage treatment: transfer of the odorant molecules via a washing phase in a gas-liquid contactor followed by biodegradation of the transferred compounds in an activated sludge basin. This biological regeneration enables the washing solution to be used in a closed circuit. By separating the two stages in two distinct reactors,each process can be optimized.


Orgawatt
Vérité has developed an expertise in energy production from biomass and organic waste gasification (pig manure, poultry litter, wood, WWTP sludge, refuse of slaughter-house).The Orgawatt® process consists of a gasification reactor, a device to purify and cool the lean gas, a heat production system and associated equipment. Cogeneration 
produces thermic and electrical energy simultaneously by the addition of an internal combustion engine or a gas turbine.

Thermokin : Thermokinetic Compressor Energy Biomass Coal




Thermokin has an innovative technology for the energy industry allowing to :
- compress air or any gas
- produce electricity
- increase the efficiency of alternative fuels ( fossil & biomass)
The technologies harnessed in the TC are covered by various patents obtained in France (2002), in the United States (2005) and registered in Europe and Worldwide.The technological impact of this new compressor is significant due to the number and the diversity of its applications and its ease of implementation.The potential applications cover both the heavy industry sector as well as power plants using gas turbine combined cycles, biomass and recovery fuels, etc.The potential markets are therefore vast and diversified (various industrial and power sectors).

The principles of the TC have been validated by the R&D Centre of Gaz de France and by the French Aeronautics and Space Research Centre (ONERA). The French Agency for Innovation (ANVAR) awarded the patents and carried out some preliminary laboratory tests.
