EVELON provides a unique technology for the production of Continuous Basalt Fiber (CBF). Extensive scientific research on natural basalt stone has paved the way for CBF production, which represents an innovative advance in the processing and application of new materials.

This environmentally safe technology for fiber, yarn and related products consists of just a single stage – melting.  Further processing of CBF into other materials and products requires no additional energy inputs: instead different “cold” technologies are employed, such as molding, winding, pultrusion, sputtering and similar.

CBF production is environmentally friendly:

CLEAN RAW MATERIAL

  • Natural basalt stone

CLEAN PRODUCTION

  • Employs no chemical additives, solvents, dyes and similar
  • Clean energy: natural gas, electric power
  • Clean equipment: compact furnace modules and aggregates produce no hazardous wastes
  • Emissions: only filtered byproducts of combusted natural gas

CLEAN PRODUCT

  • Full compliance with European KEDSN regulations on chemical safety
  • Emits no harmful substances into air or water
  • Non-combustible, non-explosive
  • Carcinogen-safe (fiber diameter more than 5 microns)

CLEAN DISPOSAL

  • Harmless powder for future use as filler

BASALT FIBERS exhibit properties similar to CARBON FIBERS, but at a price similar to that of GLASS FIBERS

 

Basalt fiber’s strength-to-weight ratio is 2.5 times that of alloyed steel, and 1.5 times that of glass fiber. And CBF is not prone to corrosion from salts, alkalis or acids. As a result, both basalt’s own unique characteristics and the implementation CBF production give rise to a variety of applications.

Use of basalt fiber is among the fastest growing trends in the construction and oil industries today.

Projects

Fullerene manufacturing technology

In cooperation with our Russian business partner, we are developing a new technology for industrial scale manufacturing of fullerenes with synthesis. The types of fullerenes that we obtain: • C60 • C70 • Higher fullerenes

Waste tire recycling technology

In association with EROM we provide a unique patented technology for the recycling of waste tires. This technology represents a faster, more efficient dissimilation process of waste tires free of emissions and other pollutants harmful to the environment, together with very low energy consumption and highly marketable byproducts.
