Length of experience: 15 years, 13 of which with BRGM

Know-how and experience:
Mr. Guillaneau, a graduate of the Ecole Supérieure de l'Energie et des Matériaux (ESEM - Higher School of Energy and Materials), completed his training at Laval University (Québec, Canada) with a Master's degree in Metallurgical Engineering while conducting pilot plant tests at the Mineral Research Center of Québec, Canada.

He started his career with BRGM in 1986 and is now Head of the Process Department (staff of 40) of the French Mineral Survey and Product Manager for the Process Analysis range of software USIM PAC, BILCO and ECHANT. This entails the management of teams of Engineers and Technicians involved in Biotechnology and Mineral Processing and of a pilot plant of 2 000 m2 and about 500 m2 of laboratories. On the other hand, his activity concerns also the management of the Process Analysis Group. The Process Analysis Group is involved the design of new plants, in the retrofitting and optimization of existing ones and in conducting projects in the sampling, material balances and process simulation fields.

Mr. Guillaneau has been conducting several project at the international scale, either commercial or for the European Union research. He has been working on phosphate plant optimization for the ICS in Senegal both on mechanical preparation and on flotation and for Arafertil and Fosfertil in Brazil.

Mr. Guillaneau is used to making international contacts and has dealt with numerous and varied missions throughout the world including scientific communications, technical presentations and customers and representatives training (Russia, Zaire, Turkey, Canada, U.S.A., Finland, Peru, Brazil, Yugoslavia, Germany, Spain, Algeria, Chile, Jordan, Australia, China, etc.).

Fields of Consulting work:
