When we last spoke with David White, Vice President of Sales, about WASE’ s wasteto-energy technology in 2025, the company was looking to build upon its existing applications and diversify into new markets. Over the last 12 months, WASE has certainly achieved these goals, having scaled its reactors tenfold, proved 25 percent energy gains, and entered the US market. The company has also expanded into renewable natural gas( RNG) applications to diversify the applications of its pioneering technology.
“ We’ ve been experiencing considerable growth in terms of commercial production, product development, and market expansion,” David opens.“ Our pipeline has grown in the industrial wastewater sector, and we’ ve benefited from market pull in the RNG space. Driven principally by the European market’ s drive for energy sovereignty, especially in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, public policy incentives are stimulating local biogas production and attracting private investment in anaerobic digestion( AD) capacity.”
Diversified technology
WASE gains from both sides of this market shift, as its electrode-enhanced technology increases the economic performance of existing AD assets while making new greenfield sites more financially viable. Based on a modular electro-methanogenic process, the company’ s solutions not only boost energy production, but also treat water up to ten times faster and have a 70 percent smaller footprint when compared with traditional AD processors.
To unlock opportunities in the RNG market, WASE had to develop a process for building much larger reactors.“ Previously, our technology was containerized to suit the higher flow of liquid waste streams from industrial wastewater applications,” David explains.“ However, RNG substrates are higher in solids but far greater in volume, meaning
