374 Water CEO Chris Gannon joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the successful delivery and mobilization of the company’s AirSCWO 6 System to Clean Earth’s Detroit, Michigan facility. This deployment marks a major milestone in a Department of Defense (DoD) project aimed at evaluating commercial-scale technologies for the destruction of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
Gannon highlighted that the project is led by the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), which is accelerating the adoption of advanced waste destruction technologies to meet critical national security and environmental challenges. The initiative is conducted in collaboration with the DoD’s Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) and aims to award meaningful contracts to companies with scalable, high-impact solutions.
Installation and commissioning of the AirSCWO 6 System will take approximately three weeks, followed by the start of initial waste destruction campaigns in August. The trials will process six distinct waste streams—three sourced directly from DoD facilities and three concentrated through upstream treatment technologies. Engineering firm Arcadis, the project’s prime contractor, will lead the data analytics and evaluation.
This project demonstrates 374Water’s strategic role in supporting defense readiness and environmental stewardship through its advanced supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) technology.
