Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Rio Tinto renews partnership with UQAC for 3 years to continue R&D in bauxite and alumina manufacturing

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

Rio Tinto has reportedly renewed the partnership with the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi (UQAC) for the next three years, meaning the former will invest more than $2 million to continue research & development in bauxite and tailings processing technologies. This marks a 25-year union between the two organisations, particularly in the area of bauxite and tailing treatment technologies and alumina manufacturing.

This partnership with Rio Tinto allows UAQC to build up its position and also that of the region among the world leaders in aluminium research and development. According to Mohamed Bouazara, UQAC's Vice-Rector, Research, Creation, and Innovation: "A partnership like this guarantees a certain stability in the development of our aluminium research and helps maintain cutting-edge research infrastructures and laboratories equipped with the latest technology."

The scientific director of the partnership, researcher Guy Simard of the Centre Universitaire de Recherche sur l'Aluminium (CURAL), said: "Tomorrow's issues are the challenges of today's students and researchers. The close ties we have forged with Rio Tinto over the years have enabled us to work on research projects involving the reclamation of tailings, thus allowing us to immerse our students in the academic and industrial reality, while ensuring that we train a highly qualified new generation of researchers, in support of tomorrow's aluminium industry."

Josette Ross, Director of the Arvida Research and Development Centre for Rio Tinto, said: "We are very pleased to be renewing this exclusive R&D partnership with the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, which has been a source of great achievements for almost 25 years. The alumina manufacturing process and the reclamation of by-products are essential to the production of low-carbon aluminium in Quebec. Our partnership allows us both to continually improve our techniques and equipment used in this process, and to train the next generation of researchers."
