Experimental Station for Environmental Pilot Processes (STEPPE)

Laboratory

This station is a common research area for all ÉTS professors and their public or private partners with a total surface area of ​​approximately 703 m2. STEPPE-ÉTS is dedicated to the development and pilot-scale validation of technologies (knowledge and practices) to protect the environment at the preventive, remedial and curative level in a systemic perspective and responsible evolution of human activities. To develop technologies, knowledge and acquire information to protect the environment, the STEPPE-ÉTS infrastructure includes a pilot hall for large-scale studies, two metrological laboratories, a biological laboratory, a computer lab and two rooms with controlled environment.
In addition to these spaces, STEPPE-ÉTS's functionalities make it possible to access a fleet of analytical equipment and pilot treatment or remediation processes (water, atmospheric emissions, soils, residual materials). If a partner so desires, STEPPE-ÉTS can also put him in touch with other services or appropriate human resources to improve his project.
