374Water Inc. (NASDAQ:SCWO) has released a white paper showcasing its AirSCWO technology's ability to destroy >99.999% of HQ-115, a PFAS additive used in Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs). This breakthrough addresses the environmental risks posed by LiB manufacturing and recycling waste. Key highlights include:

1. AirSCWO system effectively treats LiB waste, demonstrating potential for improving sustainability in the $91 billion global LiB industry.

2. The technology could prevent the release of toxic PFAS from over 20,000 kilotons of annual electric vehicle waste.

3. Traditional waste management methods are ineffective in removing fluorinated electrolytes, leading to environmental contamination.

4. 374Water's solution offers complete mineralization of electrolyte solvent waste streams without generating secondary pollutants.

5. The company is collaborating with leading LiB manufacturers and recyclers to address this growing environmental challenge.

374Water Inc. (Nasdaq:SCWO) has successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of its AirSCWO technology in destroying pharmaceutical waste for a major manufacturer. The demonstration achieved >99.9% destruction of halogenated solvents and organic wastes, surpassing the 99.5% efficiency of on-site incineration. AirSCWO eliminated organics to levels ten times lower than discharge limits for on-site injection.

The technology offers a sustainable solution for the $40 billion global pharmaceutical waste management market, addressing challenges such as environmental contamination and regulatory compliance. AirSCWO transforms organic waste into harmless water and minerals, potentially creating additional value through rare earth material recovery. CEO Chris Gannon highlighted the technology's capability to handle diverse and complex waste streams, positioning it as an effective alternative to conventional off-site disposal methods.

374Water Inc. (NASDAQ:SCWO) is deploying its AirSCWO waste destruction technology to the City of Orlando's Iron Bridge Water Pollution Control Facility. This seven-month demonstration will showcase the system's ability to treat biosolids and destroy PFAS in various waste streams. The project is funded by a Federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill grant and aims to reduce waste volume and greenhouse emissions.

The company has also updated its deployment plans with the Orange County Sanitation District (OC San). While initially planned for OC San, the technology will first be deployed in Orlando to refine it in a real-world setting. OC San supports this approach and expects to receive an AirSCWO-6 system in early 2025, with plans to eventually upgrade to larger systems.
