In conjunction with the 4th National Conference on Air Quality held in Montrouge on 9 and 10 October 2018, I’MTech sat down with François Mathé, a researcher in atmospheric sciences at IMT Lille Douai to ask him five questions. He gave us a glimpse of the major changes ahead in terms of measuring and monitoring […]
Last summer, Paris hosted the Olympic and Paralympic Games, an international event that brought with it an unparalleled need to control radio frequencies and prevent both intentional and unintentional interference. This was the role of France’s National Frequency Agency (ANFR), which was having to increase its workforce accordingly. To meet this exceptional need, Télécom SudParis recruited and trained a number of students over several months to help with controlling frequencies.
Methanization reduces the volume of organic waste and prevents biogas produced by fermentation, including methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from being dispersed into the atmosphere. Biogas is also used to produce heat, electricity and even biomethane for injection into the natural gas grid. Yves Andrès and Khaled Loubar, researchers at IMT Atlantique, tell us more about this technology which is emerging as a key driver of energy transition.
While road traffic pollution is now strictly controlled, the same cannot be said for the maritime sector, with its different fuels, engine types and regulations that differ depending on the shipping area. The EMINAV project, funded by Ademe to the tune of €258,000 for three years, aims to assess the pollution emitted by maritime transport […]
By Natacha Gondran, Mines Saint-Étienne, UMR 5600 Environment, City, Society (EVS), and Aurélien Boutaud, associate researcher at UMR 5600 EVS. In recent months, several scientific papers months have drawn attention to the fact that new planetary limits have been crossed (e.g., here and here). These worrying observations have been the subject of numerous media reports. But what do scientists mean […]
Individual cars represent a major source of pollution. But how can you transition from using your own car when you live far from the city center, in an area with little access to public transport? Andrea Araldo, researcher at Télécom SudParis is undertaking a research project that aims to redesign city accessibility, to benefit those […]
Transforming industrial waste and unused by-products could make it possible to respond to issues of scarcity for civil engineering resources, recyclability and even reducing use of fossil fuels. Doan Pham Minh, process engineering researcher at IMT Mines Albi, explains several avenues for recycling and reusing materials explored by his work. One man’s trash can be […]
Improving access to large facilities for research on climate and air quality and optimizing use are the objectives of the European ATMO-ACCESS project. Véronique Riffault and Stéphane Sauvage, researchers at IMT Nord Europe, one of the project’s 38 partner institutions, explain the issues involved. What was the context for developing the ATMO-ACCESS project? Stéphane Sauvage – The […]
Frédéric Thévenet, IMT Lille Douai – Institut Mines-Télécom We spend 80% of our lives in enclosed spaces, whether at home, at work or in transit. We are therefore very exposed to this air, which is often more polluted than outdoor air. The issue of health in indoor environments is thus associated with chronic exposure to […]
The ocean is a system that is difficult to observe, whose biodiversity and physical phenomena we still know very little about. Artificial intelligence could be an asset in understanding this environment better. Ronan Fablet, a researcher at IMT Atlantique, presents the projects of the new Océanix Research Chair. What is the objective? To use AI to optimize models […]
