It’ s my job

« Innovation is at the heart of Waga Energy’s business. Our landfill gas purification solution, the result of 10 years of R&D, combines most of the gas treatment technologies, including membrane permeation, adsorption and distillation. My expertise acquired at Air Liquide is put at the service of the company: I support the sales team in the development of new solutions; I help the project team in the sizing of new units; finally, I assist the operations department in charge of ensuring the proper functioning of our purification units. This global vision of the activity allows us to constantly improve our technology. At the same time, we are exploring new solutions for biogas recovery (mainly CH4 and CO2), which requires in-depth knowledge of process simulation and modeling. All this is possible thanks to a strong cohesion of the teams but especially to people very committed to the improvement of our environment and the fight against global warming. »
