Feasibility engineering preliminary to an industrial transfer of a seed crushing unit, oil conditioning and associated liquid and solid storage.

Location : Pont-Saint-Esprit, Gard FRANCE
Project Phase : Feasibility study (Master Plan)
Project Duration : 4 months

The oil mill Emile Noel started as a family business in the 1920 and became the EMILE group in 2018 and now offers a range of products from the oilseed sector: organic vegetable edible oils, vinegars and cosmetics.

Located in Pont-Saint-Esprit, the oil mill EMILE NOEL is an important player in the French organic oil market. The company wanted to anticipate and prepare its future evolution by transferring its presses located on site in a very old building to a new facility. The transfer of the presses led to the general redevelopment of the site. For this purpose, the Company preferred to rely on the services of industrial engineering to complete and confirm the upstream architectural studies.

Studies :

• Sizing of seed and oil storage facilities
• Process diagrams and diagrams
• Proposal of 2 locations (1 in existing building, 1 in new building):
  • Staff flows
  • Material flow (no crossing of certain flows)
  • Maintainability
  • Possibility of evolution towards automated storage
  • Integration of supplier packages: new turnkey storage and new turnkey crushing lines
• Justification note of the engineering choices and descriptions of the planned lots: process (equipment), building (covered enclosure), light work and HVAC
• Electrical power assessment and associated architecture
• CAPEX
• Planning

ESOPP manufactures production lines for plastic packaging films, used in the food industry, but also in the high-tech industry for lithium-ion batteries. ESOPP generates almost all of its sales revenue from exports, particularly to China, Turkey, Africa, North America and India.

For a project in Nigeria, ESOPP wished to be assisted early in the project for the piping and cable routing study. This strategy made possible the anticipation of the purchase and prefabrication of piping, supports, cables and cable trays.

Studies carried out:

• Finalization of fluid PIDs, line numbering (about 270 lines), selection of piping classes
• Finalization of engine lists (about 300) and instrumentation
• Realization of cable notebooks
• Realization of cable routing notebooks, dimensioning of cable tray sections
• Realization of a complete model of the installation
  • Integration of civil engineering and building guide plans
  • Recovery of ESOPP machine envelopes and fluid interface points
  • Installation of the machines in the model
  • Carrying out studies of piping, pipe support and cable trays according to the upstream studies (PID, cable trays booklet)
• Extraction of isometrics from pipes and ventilation ducts with detailed nomenclatures
• Nomenclature of pipes by class and diameter for preparation of purchase consultations
• Nomenclature of cables based on actual measurements from the model and routing

Construction of the fire protection network for a fuel depot

Location: Villette-de-Vienne (38)
Project phases: engineering study, implementation and commissioning
Project duration: 36 months

Project background: Based on the fire protection study defined by ODZ Consultants, EMDELEN designed and implemented the entire system to ensure the detection and fire protection of the SPMR site (fuel storage).

Studies for the fire protection network :

• Definition and management of fire scenarios
• Assessment, sizing of equipment and drafting of technical specifications
• Implementation of the entire protection system
• Specification of the work (civil engineering, steel structures, piping, EIA)
• Consulting, technical alignment and supplier selection
• CAPEX and planning

Installation of a waste gasification plant and electricity production

Location: Solo, Indonesia
Project phase: Engineering studies
Project duration: 12 months

Context of the project: the city of Solo wanted to recover its waste by producing electricity from a gasification process. EMDELEN’s mission was to design the entire waste treatment chain from the arrival of the collections to energy recovery by integrating waste preparation, gasification process, syngas purification, thermal engines, automatic engine safety chain and all utilities

Key figures: 260000 tonnes/year of waste, recovery of 10 MWe

Total amount of the project :

Range A < €10 million
Range B: between €10 and €20 million
Range C: between €20 and €50 million
Range D > €50 million

Special note: Integration of an innovative technology for biomass valorisation
