At the ENGIE site in Vilvoorde, work is underway on the further expansion of a large-scale facility. This project plays an important role in the energy transition and requires a thorough redevelopment of the existing industrial site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commissioned by ENGIE, DEME is acting as the main contractor. For the execution of the earthworks and infrastructure works, DEME is calling upon Aclagro, an experienced player in complex projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The challenge: building on and around existing infrastructure<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Aclagro was responsible for making the site construction-ready, which included, among other things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • The breaking out of old massifs and cellars<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Site preparation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Modifying critical underground infrastructure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    An important point of attention was the presence of a existing concrete box culvert<\/strong> which connects the canal to the power plant. This conduit ensures a constant flow rate of cooling water and is essential for the operation of the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The challenge: rerouting this connection without compromising capacity or reliability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Aclagro's approach<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    \n

    Led by project manager Maxim, Aclagro opted for a well-considered approach where execution and material selection went hand in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Aclagro was responsible for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • The safe diversion of the existing concrete culvert<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The integration of a new pipeline connection<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Execution within an active and technically complex environment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Because of their experience in brownfield projects<\/strong> and working on active sites, Aclagro managed to carry out this critical intervention efficiently and in a controlled manner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

      \n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

      The solution: partnership with Deschacht<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      For the new connection, a choice was made for XXL Ribwall pipes (\u00d81200 mm)<\/strong>, supplied by Deschacht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In close cooperation with Aclagro, the following was examined:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • The correct sizing<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • The practical workability on the construction site<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • The long-term reliability<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        This collaboration ensured that the chosen solution was not only technically sound, but also aligned perfectly with the operational reality on the construction site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The added value of XXL Ribwall pipes in this application:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • High structural strength<\/strong>
          Suitable for heavy loads and industrial applications<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Optimal flow<\/strong>
          Essential for ensuring a constant cooling water flow rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Lightweight and workable<\/strong>
          Faster and more efficient installation compared to concrete<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Flexibility during detours<\/strong>
          Ideal when redesigning existing infrastructure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Strong collaboration as a foundation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          The direct collaboration between Aclagro and Deschacht \u2014 from the design phase to execution \u2014 ensured an efficient approach and a reliable end result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
