Waste Energy Corp. prepares to commission waste conversion system

Texas-based Waste Energy Corp. has received the first shipment of feedstock to power its new Midland, Texas, facility. The company is preparing to begin commissioning its first U.S.-based waste conversion system.

At full capacity, the facility is expected to process up to 90 tons of waste per day, generating more than $10 million in annual revenue with gross profit margins exceeding 50 percent.

“As global demand for energy skyrockets — driven by the exponential growth of [artificial intelligence (AI)], data centers and electrification — the world urgently needs new, scalable sources of clean energy,” Waste Energy Chairman and CEO Scott Gallagher says. “Waste Energy Corp. sits at the intersection of two megatrends: environmental sustainability and the accelerating need for power to fuel the age of AI.”

Waste Energy says its proprietary waste conversation system is designed to divert and convert materials into high-value fuels, carbon black, carbon credits and other renewable energy products.

“Our team has been working tirelessly to reach this point,” Gallagher says. “This first feedstock delivery marks the true beginning of our mission: diverting waste that once polluted our landfills and converting it into clean, profitable energy for a sustainable future. … This first feedstock delivery is a reminder of why we built this business: to prove that doing good for the planet and doing well for our shareholders can be the same mission.”

In addition to producing clean fuel, Waste Energy also is developing a patent-pending blockchain-based carbon credit automation and trading platform that aims to capture, verify and monetize emissions data directly from its conversion systems in real-time. The system is built to integrate internet-of-things sensors, AI-driven verification and blockchain-based transaction records and will enable automated creation and trading of carbon credits generated through the company’s waste diversion and fuel production activities. According to Waste Energy, each verified ton of emissions reduction will be tokenized and traded on the company’s forthcoming automated carbon credit creation marketplace.

“This technology converts every pound of waste we divert from landfills and processes it into not just clean fuel, but measurable environmental value,” Gallagher says. “Our automated carbon credit system allows Waste Energy Corp. to directly participate in the multi-billion-dollar global carbon markets, creating a financial layer on top of our physical operations.”
