374Water’s AirSCWO: A Solution for Contaminants

374Water has developed an innovative technology called AirSCWO (Air Supercritical Water Oxidation) that aims to address environmental concerns related to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), pathogens, and pharmaceuticals. This advanced treatment process utilizes supercritical water to effectively break down these contaminants, which are often resistant to conventional waste management methods.

The AirSCWO system operates at high temperatures and pressures, allowing for the complete mineralization of hazardous substances. This technology not only targets PFAS, which are known for their persistence in the environment, but also effectively eliminates harmful pathogens and pharmaceutical residues that can pose risks to public health and ecosystems.

By providing a sustainable and efficient solution for waste treatment, 374Water is positioning its AirSCWO technology as a crucial tool in the fight against pollution and environmental degradation. The company aims to collaborate with municipalities and industries to deploy this technology widely, contributing to cleaner water systems and improved public health outcomes.
