More information

Quéruel was born on 23 November 1779 in Normandy at the hamlet of La Perrochère in Saint-Quentin-les-Chardonnets, the son of Jacques and Marie Anne Lebarbé.



Around the beginning of the 19th century, Quéruel was hired by Benjamin Delessert in his sugar factory at Passy, where he succeeded, by the end of 1811, in developing the process that would lead to the manufacture of sugar on an industrial scale from sugar beet, giving for the first time the impetus for the mass-production this new sort of sugar.
