ALWAYS TOWARDS ”0” IMPACT

This high level of requirement has long been
driven by Jean Fixot, President of the CHIMIREC
Group. Constantly increasing from year to year, the
neutralization of our generated impacts implies both
commitment and rigour in the methodology. Detect,
identify, analyse, measure, until the right solution is
found.

Question to
Franck Pattin,
operations manager
of CHIMIREC Javené

To preserve air quality, how are air emissions at
treatment facilities managed?

At the CHIMIREC Javené site, the process of
capturing and channelling atmospheric emissions
has been initiated as part of our objective to
” preserve the health of our employees. For example,
in 2008, a first collective aspiration was installed at
the deconditioning station. This collection system
was extended in 2017 to all our grinding tools, with
the installation of a 55,000 m3/h fan linked to a dust
collector.
At the same time, we have been looking For the
most efficient and comfortable Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE), as the comfort of the PPE is an
essential criterion to ensure the quality of our teams'
working conditions.
