"5E" or "Five Element Energy" takes its name from the ancient Greek conception of the five elements. We believe in an integrative and holistic approach to waste management. This approach recognizes the importance of thoughtful consideration of our relationship with the things we create. We use those five elements as a paradigm for understanding our technology.
Earth
A clean earth symbolizes what we want to create. By collecting wastes and hydrocarbons from the land water and sky, we can transform them into clean water, clean air, and other useful materials.
Fire
Fire embodies purification. For us here at 5E we look to that purification as a chain of chemical reactions that allow us to take a hydrocarbon and change it into something clean and useful.
Water
Water signifies the ultra-clean water that results from the transformation process. This element represents the company's commitment to reducing water pollution and creating clean water resources.
Wind
Wind represents movement and agility for 5E, depicting our ability to adapt our solutions to meet your needs. Air fundamental to what we do at 5E, our process can intake air and emit clean air that does not contain pollutants
Lightning
This element represents the electricity generated by 5E's systems. As a usable form of energy, this symbolizes a product of the transformation process - a valuable resource generated from waste
