Casablanca – Jaouad Zemmouri, Moroccan scientist and president of the StarkLab industrial innovation company in France, welcomed yesterday Bruno Bonnell, the leader of the France 2030 plan, a program to facilitate France’s transition to a green economy, to the production site of StarkLab’s heat exchange technology Terrao.
Terrao is a project created by StarkLab to manage the atmosphere of industrial areas and prevent deadly overheating. It is one of 40 initiatives offered by various French organizations to AID, which has sought to foster innovation in the fight against COVID-19.
While presenting this project to Bonnell, Zemmouri detailed Terrao’s activities for energy transition and smoke and air pollution management.
For his part, Bonnell expressed his interest in this impactful project to recover fatal heat from aquatic centers, gas boilers, biomass boilers and industrial fumes.
According to Terrao, the aim of this visit was to assist the group’s commitment to industry and communities through meeting the 2030 energy transition goals.
In addition to these goals, Zemmouri explained in an interview with the French magazine Industrie & Technologies that Terrao’s main purpose is “to provide a smoke treatment system that combines the functionality of an industrial scrubber with a high-performance heat exchanger.”
This project, he added, “provides a solution for the treatment and disinfection of air in confined spaces, which are increasingly suspected of being the cause of the appearance of [COVID-19] clusters.”
In collaboration with Dalkia, a renewable energy semiconductor manufacturer, and EDF, a nuclear electric power generation company, the visit concluded with a demonstration of CO2 capture on a conventional boiler, a global first in the sector.
