Ecovyst Appoints Colleen Grace Donofrio as Vice President – Environment and Sustainability

Ecovyst, a specialty catalyst and sulfuric acid recycling provider, announced today that Colleen Grace Donofrio has been appointed as its Vice President – Environment and Sustainability.

“I am excited to have Colleen join the team to lead our environmental and sustainability programs,” said Kurt Bitting, CEO of Ecovyst. “Colleen’s experience and enthusiasm will help further enhance Ecovyst’s award winning sustainability programs and bolster our efforts to develop service offerings that enable our customers to meet their sustainability goals."

Previously, Donofrio was a shareholder in Babst, Calland, Clements and Zomnir, an environmental law practice based in Pittsburgh, PA. There, she served as outside counsel to Ecovyst and its predecessors since 2005. She replaces Elaine T. Simpson, who has retired from Ecovyst after a two-decade-long career with Ecovyst and its predecessors. 

Ecovyst contains two business units, Ecoservices which focus on sulfuric acid production and recycling in North America for the refining industry, water treatment, mining and other industries; and Catalyst Technologies, which supplies silica catalysts, catalyst supports, and zeolites for various catalytic applications.
