Thanks to its unique ability to combine with other elements, and its wide range of potential uses, it is still needed in industrial activities. To reduce emissions from industrial processes, \u00c9volys has developed an alternative product, producing more environmentally-friendly and sustainable carbon sources. Biocarbon is the carbon naturally absorbed and stored by plants and trees. By developing biocarbon, we are paving the way for new, sustainable value chains that benefit both nature and industry.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_column_container col-md-5\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_column-inner\">\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_content_element  wpb_custom_81a4f7ef9830bf958462581aa01150fb\" data-appear-animation=\"fadeIn\" data-appear-animation-delay=\"250\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper   vc_box_border_grey\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"802\" src=\"https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Man-with-Yellow-Hemlet_framed.png\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"Man with Yellow Hemlet_framed\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Man-with-Yellow-Hemlet_framed.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Man-with-Yellow-Hemlet_framed-768x616.png 768w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Man-with-Yellow-Hemlet_framed-640x513.png 640w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Man-with-Yellow-Hemlet_framed-400x321.png 400w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Man-with-Yellow-Hemlet_framed-367x294.png 367w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row row top-row about-video wpb_custom_034b39d9bc6c6b310d69e39f0ccf274f\"><div class=\"vc_column_container col-md-12\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_column-inner\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_raw_code wpb_raw_html wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1007677169?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"Video - coming soon\"><\/iframe><\/div><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row row top-row wpb_custom_034b39d9bc6c6b310d69e39f0ccf274f\"><div class=\"vc_column_container col-md-4\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_column-inner\">\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element   max-290 mobile-hide wpb_custom_81a4f7ef9830bf958462581aa01150fb\" data-appear-animation=\"fadeIn\" data-appear-animation-delay=\"250\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper   vc_box_border_grey\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"1046\" src=\"https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Copeaux.webp\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"\" title=\"Copeaux\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Copeaux.webp 650w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Copeaux-636x1024.webp 636w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Copeaux-640x1030.webp 640w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Copeaux-400x644.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.evolys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Copeaux-367x591.webp 367w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_column_container col-md-8\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_column-inner\">\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element dot-h2 about-txt-2 wpb_custom_7c91d232724f73626cc933bd95b25ff0\" >\r\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t\t<h2><strong>BIOCARBON :<\/strong> A WAY TO DECARBONISE OUR METALLURGICAL PROCESSES<\/h2>\n<p>In November 2023, Rio Tinto and Aymium strengthened their partnership in order to develop and trial a renewable biocarbon product for use as an alternative resource to reduce emissions in large-scale industrial processes.
