Integrated solutions for sustainable development
Water & Sanitation
Clean drinking water and wastewater treatment through containerized systems
ARC HydroCell: Modular Solutions for Drinking Water and Sanitation
At the center of the "Water" component of the WNEA program are the modular ARC HydroCell systems. These containerized units, based on state-of-the-art technologies such as Ultrafiltration (UF) and Reverse Osmosis (RO), are designed to provide rapid and reliable access to drinking water and sanitation solutions in various contexts.
The HydroCell range includes several models adapted to specific needs:
These systems are characterized by their containerized design and "plug-and-play" installation, enabling rapid deployment and high mobility. They are perfectly adapted to different local conditions, from well water to river water, and can even treat brackish water or seawater in coastal areas.
Application areas include humanitarian aid, rural development, and emergency situations where immediate access to drinking water is critical. For complete sanitation, HydroCell units can be integrated with SBR (Sequencing Batch Reactor) wastewater treatment systems, ensuring sustainable water management from start to finish.
Sustainable Agriculture
Improving food security through modern agricultural technology
The WNEA program integrates the expertise of key partners to support effective and sustainable agriculture. To ensure that improved access to water leads to better nutrition, the agricultural component is orchestrated by Agrovisio and GreenMetricHub, each making an essential contribution:
Agrovisio
complements this support through advanced digital tools for precision agriculture. Through the use of satellite data, AI, and machine learning, Agrovisio enables precise yield forecasts, risk management, and cultivation planning, and trains farmers in efficient resource use and climate-resistant practices.
GreenMetricHub
monitors the ecological sustainability of agricultural projects. Through the integration of ESG monitoring with AI and IoT, this platform evaluates the CO₂ footprint of agricultural activities and provides advice for environmentally friendly practices and achieving NetZero goals.
Reliable Energy
Sustainable energy supply for communities and infrastructure
Frerk Module: Power Supply and Generator Solutions
Frerk Power Solutions offers a comprehensive range of generators and power systems:
These containerized modular solutions complement WNEA's energy component by ensuring stable power supply in off-grid areas or those with unstable infrastructure.
