Elysis - Aluminum

In May 2018, Apple announced its commitment to Elysis, a company born of the company of The two most important companies in the world in the aluminum industry: Alcoa and Rio Tinto, and made large sums of money (along with the Government of Canada and Quebec) to get aluminum working without using coal.

As we can read on the Elysis website, Apple bought the first batch of free aluminum carbon are manufactured in the Pittsburgh facilities and will be used in Apple products not specified, although they will be the majority, as this information is available in many Apple products.

Alcoa and Rio Tinto, via Elysis, aim advertise and license a carbon-free discovery process from 2024, so that any company uses and forgets coal as the main source of energy for extracting alumina from bauxite by the electrolysis process.

Lisa Lisa, head of Apple's ecosystem, says:

For more than 130 years, aluminum, a commodity used in many consumer products every day, has been produced in the same way, but that will change.

Alcoa, has been investing in R&D since 2009 to process aluminum without using coal, a process that 10 years later was able to see the light. Elysis plans to open a factory in Canada to carry out the process in Saguenay, Quebec, a factory that will not open its doors early until the second quarter of 2020.

Again, it is pointed out that, like other large technology companies, ApHe maintains a strong commitment to the environment. It should be remembered that all companies that manufacture Apple's manufacturing or assembly processes use renewable energy and non-carbon as a source of energy.
