About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Roquette commissioned two mechanical vapor recompression evaporator units at its French sites in 2025. The technology reduces steam consumption from natural gas combustion by reusing vapor, achieving energy recovery and lower emissions. Evidence: "En 2025, Roquette a construit en France une deuxième tranche de systèmes RMV. Ce projet, opérationnel fin décembre 2025, va permettre d’économiser environ 38 000 teqCO2/an." — https://www.roquette.com/fr/content/download/42296/file/roquette-rapport-durabilite-2025.pdf
