Avoiding industrial risks

Safety is an integral part of the Roquette strategy. All Roquette’s actions in this sphere help to reduce technological risk and to limit the consequences of any possible accidents.

Notable examples of the strategy are :

Prevention of accidental pollution

Water used in the production process and liable to be the source of accidental pollution can, in the event of an incident, be channelled into holding reservoirs for subsequent treatment.

Prevention of explosion risks

Fine organic powders can be a cause of explosions. In addition to extensive training and the raising of employee awareness, this risk is minimised by the deployment of technologies which limit both the likelihood of an accident and, should one occur, its consequences".

Prevention of toxicity risks

In the corn-steeping process, the starch industry uses sulphur dioxide stored in liquid form. The possibility of a container rupture constitutes a risk. To eliminate this risk completely, Roquette, after extensive studies, replaced the reagent with sodium bisulphite.
