I can't tell you exactly, but I can give you a hint. It is converting =
:traite to a string. But, you have a mistype somewhere, because you have =
an uneven number of double quotes. I'm guessing that when you =
pasted/wrote the code in your email, this was obscured.

> Mouvement.update(params[:id], statut =3D'#{:traite}'")
                                      ^          ^^

You even have it again:

> Even statut =3D'#{:traite.to_s}'" don't work
               ^               ^^

Hope that helps.
