Title:
Bergès, Aristide
Author:

Description:
Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- Paper manufacturer and french hydraulic engineer.- The son of a paper manufacturer, he left the École centrale des Arts et Manufactures in 1853 with the title of chemical engineer. He started his career in his father’s factory where he perfected manufacturing procedures for wood pulp slurry. In 1864, he registered a series of patents on defibration, refining and screening the pulp. Living in Dauphiné from 1867 onwards, he then became the promoter of equipment for high falls as an energy source for the manufacture of paper pulp. It was in perilous conditions that he undertook the development of a fall of 200 metres in height in 1869, and then of 500 metres in 1882, on the Lancey stream. These were at the time the highest head falls in France. A true apostle of the utilisation of hydraulic energy accumulated in snow and glaciers, he was able to find the right word to designate it and touch people’s imaginations - “white coal” ,a term that was to later enjoy a great future.- Fils d'un fabricant de papier, il a quitté l'école Centrale des Arts et Manufactures en 1853 avec le titre d'ingénieur chimiste. Il a commencé sa carrière dans l'usine de son père où il a perfectionné les procédés de fabrication de la pâte à papier. En 1864, il enregistra une série de brevets pour le défibrage, le raffinage et le tamisage de la pâte. Installé dans le Dauphiné à partir de 1867, il se mit à promouvoir activement l'installation d'équipements hydrauliques sur les chutes d'eau élevées en guise de source d'énergie pour la fabrication de la pâte à papier. C'est ainsi que, dans des conditions périlleuses, il entreprit l'élaboration d'une chute de 200 mètres de hauteur en 1869, puis de 500 mètres en 1882, sur le cours de la rivière Lancey. Celles-ci étaient à l'époque les plus hautes de France. Véritable apôtre de l'utilisation de l'énergie hydraulique accumulée dans la neige et les glaciers, il réussit à trouver une expression populaire pour la désigner et toucher l'imagination des gens : l'expression «houille blanche» était promise à un bel avenir.- Industriel papetier et ingénieur hydraulicien français.- All metadata published by Europeana are available free of restriction under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.
