About Us
CONVERTING WASTE INTO SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
Our technology produces revolutionary waste to energy (WTE) solutions for industrial and municipal sectors. Advancements in the use of pyrolysis provide high-efficiency, low emission conversion of waste fuels into usable energy. Reducing or eliminating up to 100% of the waste currently being deposited in landfills while providing energy for electrical generation is our specialty. By offering end-to-end engineering, procurement, financing, and operation of our WTE systems, we can provide innovative, integrated, financially viable and sustainable energy-from-waste solutions for any global market.
INNOVATION
Based on advancements in the use of clean pyrolysis technology, our systems provide high-efficiency, low emission conversion of waste fuels to usable energy. Using our proprietary technology, waste products like municipal solid waste, biomass, tires, plastics, coal and more, are used as fuel in order to create electricity, industrial waxes, and usable carbon products, all with emission levels that meet the most stringent standards in the world.
GLOBAL FOCUS
From our head office and manufacturing facility in Burlington, Ontario, Canada, we develop waste-to-energy projects both at home and abroad, with multiple global sites in operation and many more in development. Our systems are designed to help municipalities around the world develop a real solution to the waste disposal problems that so many of them face. Our solutions eliminate up to 100% of the waste currently being deposited in landfills and provide energy for electrical generation.
OTHER SOLUTIONS & EXPERTISE
We originally established ourselves as a leading manufacturer and distributor of commercial air and water treatment products and systems for a variety of Water and Wastewater Applications. These solutions are often a component of our waste-to-energy solutions, or they can be implemented on their own. Working with industry partners, we continue to provide wastewater treatment equipment for large scale or specialized projects in the industrial and municipal sectors. We distribute products through direct sales and a network of dealers and distributors for specific product sectors, and we export our products to the USA, Europe, UK, China, India, Singapore, Hong Kong, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East.
Our Motivation
Simpson is striving to revolutionize the energy industry by implementing technology that turns waste into usable energy. We envision a world where our waste is no longer a problem in our landfills but a renewable source of energy that we can harness while still turning a profit. Our systems are designed to help municipalities around the world develop a real solution to their waste disposal and energy problems.
Our Motivation and Commitment is to look after the environment, the health and safety of our employees, customers, and the global communities where we operate. Our desire is to provide sustainable waste and energy solutions while producing clean, affordable energy across the globe.
We are committed to engineering cutting edge technologies and being the global partner of choice for public and private energy, for waste projects and wastewater treatment projects alike, by providing superior client-focused solutions that reduce contamination, create renewable energy, and new green jobs across the globe.
Global Vision
At Simpson Environmental, we develop waste-to-energy projects both at home and abroad to help municipalities around the world develop a real solution to waste disposal problems. With more than 20 global sites in operation, and many more in development, we aim to eliminate up to 100% of the waste currently being deposited in landfills and provide the energy needed for electrical generation.
Our innovative approaches divert waste from landfills while producing clean, affordable energy, simultaneously addressing environmental issues while meeting the world’s energy needs.
We partner with best-in-class OEMs to provide full service waste-to-energy projects. Together we build, own, and operate world-class facilities that convert a range of waste into sustainable energy.
The most incredible part of the SEC solution is its flexibility, converting solid waste, biomass, tires, plastics, coal and more into fuel to create electricity and other products.
What Does Pyrolysis Mean?
Pyro means heat and lysis means break down. And together, they create pyrolysis, a thermochemical breakdown of organic material at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen. Pyrolysis is irreversible, and involves the immediate change of chemical composition and physical phase. In combination with the Simpson Environmental System, this process results in the generation of clean energy with virtually no waste.
Global Renewable Energy: Proof in Numbers
Across the globe, there has been a rising awareness of the critical need for renewable energy and energy efficiency. And our increased understanding tells us that it’s not only about climate change. Renewable energy also creates new economic opportunities and provides energy access to the billions of people still living without modern energy services.
Recent advances in renewable energy technologies, worldwide increases in capacity, and rapid cost reductions have been realized. It’s simple economics – increases in production result in lower per-unit costs, attracting significant investment and further cost reductions.
In 2014, renewable energy continued to flourish against the backdrop of expanding global energy consumption and a dramatic decline in oil prices. Throughout 2014, the increased capacity of renewable energy projects and the resulting swell in energy production saw renewable energy investments in the power sector outpace net investments in fossil fuel power plants.
The benefits of renewable energy and the need for it are undeniable:
