Expert in process engineering
Use sciences to solve real-world engineering problems
For over 15 years, CASPEO helps engineers and scientists to enhance their plants processing complex raw materials. Expert in process engineering, we deliver process simulation software and independent consulting services for various industries. Our goal: help you to find the most cost-effective option to design and improve your process. Discover our unique approach in process engineering, beyond process simulation.
Our story began in the mineral processing industry
CASPEO is a French SME created in 2004 by Marie-Véronique Durance and Stéphane Brochot, expert in process engineering and IT.
Spin-off of BRGM, the French geological survey, the raison d’être of CASPEO was to offer to the mining industry methods and computational tools, fruit of years of research: “ sciences to enhance your resources ”.
This is how CASPEO became a reference in the mineral processing industry.
Today, CASPEO serves various markets such as mining and metallurgy, biomass and food processing, solid waste treatment and other processing industries.
More than 300 customers worldwide have choosen CASPEO as engineering expert: processing plants, engineering firms, R&D centers as well as universities. And you?

A unique approach…
CASPEO know-how consists not only in process modeling and simulation. Our approach goes beyond simulation. We believe to support decision-making, accurate data being the key. That is why we also propose sampling, data reconciliation, mass balancing and piping software and expertise.
Another aspect of our approach: to characterize both material and unit operations at a whole.
