President and CEO of Advanced Emissions Solutions announced

L. Heath Sampson has been announced as President and Chief Executive Officer of Advanced Emissions Solutions, Inc. He will succeed Dr Michael D. Durham, who will retire from the firm at the end of April.

“We are pleased that Heath has accepted this position and the Board is confident that he has the right skills and experience to lead the next stages of the company’s transformation. We look forward to further progress on the previously announced separation of the Refined Coal businesses from the Emission Control business as well as the evolution of the Emission Control business as its market shifts towards compliance solutions for the federal Mercury Air Toxics Standard (MATS) and away from equipment for MATS,” said W. Phillip Marcum, Chairman of the Board of Directors.

“Mike’s contributions to all of the Advanced Emissions Solutions companies and the global air pollution control industry cannot be overstated. Since co-founding ADA Technologies in 1985 Mike has shown to be a visionary and driving force in creating and building multiple companies, including ADA Environmental Solutions, ADA Carbon Solutions and Clean Coal Solutions. His vision, creativity, and persistence have been essential factors in the success and outlook for these companies. We thank him and wish him well in his future endeavors,” added Marcum.
