Co-founded in 2000 by industrial microbiologists at the University of Waterloo, Lystek THP was piloted at full-scale at the City of Guelph Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in 2004.
Our first commercial full-scale facility became operational at the City of Guelph WWTP (Guelph, Ontario, Canada) in 2008 and we have experienced substantial growth since that time.
Lystek expanded operations into the United States, with the incorporation of Lystek International Limited in 2014, with the commissioning of the Fairfield OMRC (California) following shortly after in 2016.
The Lystek THP technology is now operational across fourteen installations. These facilities service a range of small, medium, and large communities throughout North America, including two large regional facilities we own and operate.
Our team’s expertise enables us to successfully implement Lystek THP with comprehensive facility assessment, design-build, regulatory and community engagement, and product management services to provide turn-key solutions for biosolids & organics management.
