French Cleantech will be in Copenhaguen this week at the Ministry of Foreign Affaires of Denmark on March 3, 2010. This conference will be the opportunity to talk about internationalisation through acquisition for Danish SME’S. A large range of Danish cleantech companies attended this conference.

Claranor is a french cleantech company developing an alternative to chemicals and irradiation to eliminate bacteria from the surface of the cups and other closures. The company has developed a pulsed light technology. A voltage of 3,000 volts at the terminals of xenon lamps produces an intense flash of light and very fast with a biocidal effect on micro-organisms present on the packaging. This process, particularly ecological, replaces the treatments with chemicals or gamma rays, uses no water and no rejects or wastes or effluents and consumes little power.

S3d is a french cleantech company developing and marketing equipment which enables on-site processing and energy recovery of organic waste. S3d offers “turnkey” waste recycling equipment in view of producing energy. Through an innovative process named Valorfat®, the company enables animal fat to be converted into biofuel. The latter may then be used in a cogeneration diesel engine to produce electricity and heat. Tests on the demonstrator are conclusive, and the efficiency rate remains close to that obtained with diesel fuel while NOx and particle emissions are reduced by 80%.

SYSTOVI is a french independant manufacturer of solar panels and photovoltaic systems. Created in December 2008, the company is specialized in BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaïc) and develops systems for photovoltaic building integrating several functions, such as electricity generation high performance, waterproofing, insulation and recovery of hot air, while allowing perfect aesthetic integration.

Simulating on screen with a 3D image very explicitly, the explosion of a flammable chemical and its impact on the neighborhood is the goal of a software developed by the french Cleantech company named Sillages Environment. Created last September by Lionel Soulhac, Sillages Environnement developed a software allowing people in positions of “decision” to understand, visualize and map an area of risk, by ensuring the rigor of scientific data.
