IMT Mines Albi drew on a use case on retrofitting thermal vehicles into electric vehicles to develop decision support tools to help companies design their supply chains. This work builds on the principles of the physical internet and aims to improve the circularity of supply chain networks.
Intense rainfall events linked to climate change generate dynamic runoff which, through erosion, removes materials from the soil, including contaminants. At IMT Nord Europe, research teams are carrying out complementary measurement and modeling work to understand how this displaced matter enters the water cycle, and how to better manage territories.
Éric Guibal, a chemical engineering researcher at IMT Mines Alès, works on the use of biomass and biopolymers for metal recovery. He has received national and international recognition for his scientific contributions, which include numerous publications. He also dedicated part of his career to developing an international scientific collaboration network in Latin America and Egypt.
Fabienne Errero is a doctoral student at IMT Mines Alès, whose research focuses on the interactions between the environment and society in the Gardons river basin in Cévennes. For this trained architect, it was an opportunity to redefine the contours of her profession by factoring in the link between architecture and water. As part of her thesis, Fabienne Errero produced a series of “thought drawings”, enabling her to put forward ideas and build on her thinking. The text and illustrations in this article are taken from this work, created by the researcher.
Concentrated solar power concentrates the sun’s rays to generate heat and electricity. It differs from photovoltaic solar production and therefore offers a new mode of energy production. Ugo Pelay, research professor at IMT Nord Europe, explains the principles behind this system.
The EU recently adopted the AI Act, which establishes a legal framework for the safe and ethical use of AI. But what about generative AI? At Institut Mines-Télécom Business School, a researcher and her PhD student are studying the risks associated with generative AI, particularly ChatGPT, based on real-life incidents. Their work highlights major ethical issues and shows the emergence of multifaceted risks associated with the new uses of this revolutionary technology.
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.
Bio-waste is everywhere: in wastewater treatment plants, landfills, farms and local communities. Many stakeholders believe methanization offers a timely solution for treating such organic waste, while also producing energy. At IMT Atlantique, a research team is conducting studies on the viability of these facilities and the biogas they produce. As part of their applied research, they use complex tools involving several disciplines.
The Di-Hydro project involves digitizing hydropower plants, to operate them as sustainably as possible and better plan maintenance. IMT, in particular Télécom SudParis, is contributing to the development of a federated platform designed to facilitate secure data-exchange and decision-making, both at the level of each individual plant and collectively.
The SUST(AI)N project aims to create connected and aware buildings with a focus on human needs. The technological blocks for this system include ubiquitous and invisible sensors powered by radio frequency signals. A Telecom SudParis team has been working on this new development for over a year.
