Mechanical Engineer - ELYSIS
A New Era for the Aluminum Industry – ELYSIS
Carbon Free Aluminum
The ELYSIS™ technology is the greatest breakthrough in the aluminum industry since its beginnings in 1886.
Work is underway now to further develop this revolutionary new way to produce aluminum, eliminating carbon dioxide and all other greenhouse gas emissions from the traditional smelting process.
The ELYSIS process eliminates the use of carbon anodes, replacing those with proprietary materials.
It is the first industrial process that emits oxygen as its by-product and has the potential to transform an entire industry.
In 2018, two international aluminum producers, Alcoa and Rio Tinto, came together to form the ELYSIS joint venture with the provincial government of Quebec.
With support from the Canadian Government and Apple, the technology is progressing and is currently being designed to support the construction of new smelters or retrofits.
ELYSIS is headquartered in Montreal, with Technology Research & Development locations in Alma, Quebec, (Canada), in Jonquiere, Quebec, (Canada), in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, (United States), and in France.
Commercial quality metal produced by ELYSIS during the ongoing R&D process is already being used by Apple in a variety of products (The 16-inch MacBook Pro and the iPhone SE); Ab InBEV (cans); Audi (e-tron GT wheels produced by the RONAL Group), and Corona (cans).
