374 Water CEO Chris Gannon joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s latest business milestones and the growing market impact of its groundbreaking AirSCWO™ (Air-Supercritical Water Oxidation) technology. As environmental regulations tighten and the urgency to address toxic “forever chemicals” like PFAS intensifies, 374Water is emerging as a leader in advanced waste destruction solutions that eliminate hazardous organic contaminants completely. “Our technology eradicates it completely, so it doesn't exist anymore,” Gannon told Proactive, referring to AirSCWO’s unmatched ability to destroy complex contaminants such as long-chain PFAS compounds, which have proven resistant to conventional treatment methods. These persistent chemicals, commonly found in industrial waste and firefighting foams, are linked to serious health and environmental issues, making effective disposal solutions a global priority. Gannon announced that 374Water has secured a contract with the State of North Carolina to process Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) — a PFAS-laden firefighting material that is being phased out nationwide. This agreement marks a significant validation of the company’s proprietary technology and highlights the increasing demand for scalable, reliable destruction methods as regulators crack down on hazardous waste. In addition to the North Carolina contract, Gannon revealed a strategic partnership with a RCRA-permitted TSDF (Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facility) operator to establish the company’s first dedicated waste destruction site. This facility will serve as a critical hub for demonstrating AirSCWO’s industrial-scale capabilities and will help accelerate adoption across broader markets. Gannon emphasized that AirSCWO technology is technology-agnostic and modular, making it highly adaptable across a wide range of waste streams — from sludge and biosolids to concentrated industrial liquids. Current deployments are already underway in states like Florida and California, where 374Water is working with local governments and utilities to address critical wastewater treatment challenges. The company’s momentum comes at a pivotal time, as governments around the world impose stricter limits on PFAS and other emerging contaminants. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), for example, has recently introduced enforceable drinking water standards for several PFAS compounds, creating a surge in demand for reliable treatment solutions. #proactiveinvestors #374waterinc #nasdaq #scwo #wastewater #PFASDestruction #AirSCWO #WasteManagement #EnvironmentalTech #ForeverChemicals #CleanTech #WaterTreatment #EPARegulations #ToxicWasteSolutions
