3D EAU: Expert Hydraulic Engineering Solutions
A decade-long provider of trusted sanitation and drinking water solutions
Founded in 2014, 3D EAU is a hydraulic engineering firm specializing in sewerage systems, drinking water, and river management.
We work closely with clients to ensure the safe and efficient operation of wastewater networks, delivering high-quality, tailored technical support every step of the way.
Our expertise :
Designing measurement systems customized to the hydraulic configuration and specific needs of your facilities.
Validating the design of your existing or new hydraulic structures before construction to ensure proper operation and optimize construction costs.
Determining the optimal measurement points in the network and the best method for assessing transit flows, with the goal of gaining a deeper understanding of how the sewer network operates.
Our hydraulic equipment, tailored to your needs and manufactured in our workshops in France, to reduce your spills, minimise deposits and ensure reliable self-monitoring of spill flows.
Our hydraulic engineering studies
A hydraulic study conducted by 3D EAU provides a comprehensive solution to environmental challenges, offering a significant advantage in terms of the reliability of the proposed solution and the cost savings, both in investment and maintenance.
Additionally, our design team supports you throughout every stage of the process :
- Continuous monitoring and assessment of your wastewater networks ;
- Designing bespoke solutions tailored to local context and challenges ;
- Equipping hydraulic structures with instrumentation ;
- Implementing self-monitoring systems for wastewater discharges.
Our hydraulic modeling services
Innovative solutions and expertise
In the design phase, to validate and optimize a planned structure
In the diagnostic phase, to assess and adapt an existing structure
We offer various hydraulic modeling solutions :
- 0D, 1D, and 3D modeling tailored to the specific context of each project
- In the instrumentation phase, to assess the number, placement, and type of sensors needed to ensure optimal measurement precision.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) : an innovative speciality
Initially used in the aerospace sector, 3D EAU has set itself apart by harnessing the power of 3D modeling in hydraulics, revolutionizing the design and instrumentation of hydraulic structures.
Using a combination of advanced techniques and established methods, 3D EAU’s 3D hydraulic modeling delivers a range of benefits for your projects:
- Enhanced precision and quality
- Reduced design and execution time
- Seamless integration of hydraulic and control systems to optimize performance
Our project management methodology :
1
Identifying your needs and offering a tailored solution
2
Setting up a project team, followed by a steering committee meeting to coordinate the various parties involved in the project
3
Conducting an on-site inspection and survey of the structure
4
Carrying out the study
5
Holding a final feedback meeting to present the developed solution
6
Facilitating the implementation of the proposed solution
Our values
Independence, guaranteeing total objectivity for our customers: no external financial contribution (in particular, no shareholding in the company), no exclusivity contracts.
Innovation: thanks to our close collaboration with the ICube research laboratory, from which the founders of 3D EAU originate, we are able to offer you innovative solutions at the cutting edge of the latest technological advances.
Respect for the environment is a priority for us. As well as promoting public transport and sustainable and responsible purchasing, we are also committed to limiting pollution and optimising our treatment processes.
3D EAU: an ALCOM Group entity
November 2022: 3D EAU joins the ALCOM Group. By joining this group, whose DNA is oriented towards “cutting-edge Research and Innovation”, 3DEAU has been able to accelerate its ultra-specialised development in 3D hydraulic modelling, benefiting in particular from the thirty or so patents registered by the ALCOM Group, as well as from the intense complementarity of its different teams.
3D EAU’s specialisation in 3D hydraulic modelling and consulting engineering has given the ALCOM Group the opportunity to differentiate itself and add real value by strengthening its expertise in the entire water cycle.
The mission of our group is to create innovative solutions based on Artificial Intelligence and Modelling designed to preserve the Environment and the Water Cycle.
The ALCOM Group comprises 4 high-tech companies:
