374Water’s AirSCWO technology plays a valuable role in critical mineral recovery by breaking down complex industrial waste streams and converting them into cleaner, more accessible materials.
We help clients meet regulatory compliance mandates and achieve their sustainability goals, while minimizing long-term liability as regulations tighten and industries face mounting pressure to address both ongoing discharges and legacy impacts from previous operations.
374Water treats the following types of waste:
- Manufacturing
- Chemical Manufacturing
- Plastics
- Pharmaceuticals & Biotech
- Emergency Services
- Food & Beverage
Federal Markets
In April 2024, the EPA classified PFOA and PFOS as hazardous substances under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), which means hundreds of Department of Defense (DoD) sites now face stricter cleanup and remediation requirements, creating an urgent need for effective on-site PFAS destruction.
These wastes create long-term risks and potential financial and legal challenges for site owners. 374Water’s AirSCWO technology addresses this problem by permanently and completely destroying PFAS, helping protect ecosystems and local water supplies.
Department of Defense
Across the world, military bases, airfields, and training facilities are believed to have PFAS contamination from past use of firefighting foams (AFFF) and other PFAS-containing materials.
Municipal Markets
Traditional wastewater treatment and biosolid disposal practices—including landfilling, incineration, and land application—are facing mounting scrutiny by environmental regulators over their inability to fully eliminate hazardous waste contaminants.
Cost-Effective Reliability
374Water’s AirSCWO technology offers a cost-effective solution that can transform waste residuals into harmless minerals and recoverable heat while completely destroying contaminants such as PFAS.
Reducing Risk
By ensuring the full destruction of hazardous substances, AirSCWO technology helps utilities maintain compliance with evolving regulations, in turn minimizing their long-term liability and reducing ongoing environmental and financial risks.
