In 1949, he moved to the University of Nottingham, becoming dean of the faculty of pure science, and then professor of geology. Evans discovered vitricin, an antibiotic which could be obtained from coal, and developed several new geological techniques, including pyrochromotography, photogrammetry, and membrane colorimetry. He published a number of books on geology, and also studied diseases caused by coal dust. On 10 July 1968, Evans was created a life peer as Baron Energlyn, of Caerphilly in the County of Glamorgan.
