374Water Announces the Successful Deployment, Commissioning, and Full Operability of its AirSCWO Technology at Orlando’s Iron Bridge Facility

Marks Major Milestone in Waste Destruction and Commercialization Path

DURHAM, NC / ACCESSWIRE / September 26, 2024 / 374Water Inc. (NASDAQ:SCWO), an emerging leader in organic waste destruction solutions, is pleased to announce that its supercritical water oxidation technology, AirSCWO, is fully installed and commissioned. The technology is now operating and processing biosolids and other PFAS contaminated wastes at scale within the City of Orlando's Iron Bridge Regional Water Reclamation Facility. This achievement is a significant milestone on the path toward the commercialization of the AirSCWO system and fulfills a key operational goal for the Company.

The AirSCWO system's successful integration into Orlando's facility marks the beginning of commercial biosolids processing, showcasing the capability of 374Water's supercritical water oxidation technology to destroy waste efficiently and sustainably. The AirSCWO system is designed to process Orlando's biosolids continuously with a direct connection to plant supplied waste activate sludge while still retaining the capability of processing other waste streams from different sources as well, offering a solution that reduces waste volumes, eliminates harmful contaminants, and supports the City's sustainability goals.

Operating at Iron Bridge will allow 374Water to demonstrate the integration of its technology at one of Florida's largest water reclamation facilities, which is capable of processing 45 million gallons of wastewater daily. The Orlando installation enables the Company to continue its commercial development of a system that can destroy persistent organic pollutants, including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ("PFAS"). Recognizing the critical need for this type of technology, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection provided Orlando a grant, under the Bilateral Infrastructure Law emerging contaminant funding, to assist in financing the AirSCWO deployment and subsequent operation.

"The operational success of our technology in Orlando is a critical step toward further proving AirSCWO's capability to destroy municipal, federal and industrial organic waste streams at scale," said Chris Gannon, CEO of 374Water. "We are scheduled to complete destruction demonstrations for multiple federal government contracts utilizing our AirSCWO system at the Orlando facility and have also secured the ability to demonstrate our capabilities to industrial customers."

This update follows our initial announcement made in July 2024 regarding the deployment of our cutting-edge AirSCWO technology to the City of Orlando's Iron Bridge facility from its extended residency at the Merrell Bros' ("MBI") Kokomo, IN facility. At MBI, 374Water developed a continuously operable system and scalable technology.

Gannon added, "This AirSCWO deployment marks a transformative moment for 374Water as we further validate our technology in commercial settings. We look forward to fulfilling additional commitments across the United States, including deploying to Orange County Sanitation (CA) in 2025. We are proud to be part of Orlando's vision for a sustainable future and are excited to demonstrate the broad utility of our technology for municipal, federal, and industrial partners."
