The FILTRAN® process is an innovative compact vegetated filter (reed bed) for the treatment of organic matter and optimised for the treatment of total nitrogen in wastewater. Thanks to partial funding from the Walloon Region (technological cheques), NATUREM SOLUTIONS entrusted CEBEDEAU with a study in 2017 aimed at optimising the sizing of the process, the…
During the summer of 2018, NATUREM SOLUTIONS carried out, on behalf of consultancy ALMADIUS, a feasibility study for an industrial customer in Belgium. The aim was to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of treating a resurgence of groundwater and surface water by different types of constructed wetlands (including vegetated filters) without electricity consumption. The…
NATUREM SOLUTIONS signed in mid-2018 an exclusive partnership for Belgium with MICROHUMUS, the French leader in its field. The partnership implies for our customers access to MICOHUMUS expertise in the above fields. It is also focused on the development of the SubsTer® network (already comprehensive in France and under development in Switzerland: www.subster.eu ), bringing…
NATUREM SOLUTIONS has been carrying out since 2017 a mission for the company PRAYON (Belgium), a leader of the phosphate industry. It focuses on the management and treatment of the water from a phosphogypsum landfill. For that purpose, NATUREM SOLUTIONS is responsible for laboratory tests as well as the design, follow-up of the construction and…
Subster® is a soil engineering process for the formulation of alternative topsoil using quarry by-products or inert excavation earth from construction sites. This topsoil is sold to landscaping companies, contractors and public developers. It is an alternative to the use of soils from agricultural land and natural areas, for resources preservation and circular economy implementation.…
For the production of topsoil, soil improvement and restoration of degraded soils we apply different approaches depending on the case and the needs of our customer: Soil engineering, resulting into the formulation to produce a topsoil valorising the materials present on site (including excavated earth); Ecological engineering, or the use of ecosystem properties (living soils)…
Phytoremediation is based on on-site pollution treatment by plants cultures. The objective of phytostabilisation is the reduction of pollutants mobility using plants. Both practices are applicable to organic pollutants and heavy metals and apply over the long term. Thanks to our expertise and our partnership with the company Microhumus (www.microhumus.fr), the specialised European company with…
Mycoremediation of polluted soils and earth involves taking advantage of the ability of certain strains of lignicolous fungi (wood-degrading fungi) to produce substances (enzymes) to degrade substrates with a chemical structure similar to many organic pollutants. Enzymes produced by the mycelium (the mushroom-producing organism) therefore have the potential to destroy a large spectrum of pollutants.…
SubsTer® topsoil manufacture allows business sectors, such as quarries or sorting centers receiving excavated earth, to valorise and sell by-products or inert materials, to promote a circular economy and improve their profit margin. Excavation, remediation or building contractors, as well as project owners can also produce topsoil on site using external or site materials, such…
The restoration of degraded soils, the revegetation of sites and phytomanagement fit many applications: industrial and urban brownfields for further development; Redevelopment of quarries, when stopping the activity or expanding the production area; Real estate developments including green spaces or urban agriculture; Agricultural lands to be diagnosed and improved; Marginal sites to be valorised, for…
