Consultancy & Engineering for innovative process
INOVERTIS brings all areas of industrial process together under one roof. Services provided range from technical studies, processes design/engineering and expert mission to consultancy.
- Aim: to support our customers from the first project to its achievement.
- Mission at the international level: to select the best available technologies (BAT) in Europe and transfer them at the international level.
Our high expertise level and multidisciplinarity allow us to carry on industrial development projects with a great efficiency and respectfully to all criteria required: technical, economic and environmental challenges.
Clean Technologies consultancy
- Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
- Selection of BAT: expertise in « water/effluents », « waste », « energy » and « material »
- Partnership with the most recognized research platforms in France to carry out the eco-innovative experimental tests
Process engineering
studies
