Green Tech Firm’s Patented Process for Turning Municipal Solid Waste to Fuel Garners Accolades
FREEMONT, Calif. – May 9, 2024 – Energy Business Review magazine has named WastAway – a leading green tech company that converts municipal solid waste (MSW) to fuel – to its Top 10 Alternative Fuel Solutions Providers 2024 ranking. Here’s a link to the online version, and an in-depth feature on WastAway.
Other companies in the rankings include BioProducts, an agricultural technology company that converts agricultural waste into alternative fuels; Calgrin Renewable Fuels, which produces sustainable, low carbon biofuels; HIF Global, that leverages renewable energy to produce green hydrogen; HydrogenXT, a pioneer of green energy solutions for electric vehicles; IRD Fuel Cells; PowerTap, a renewable energy company; Sustainable Oils, a leader in renewable diesel production; Velocys, a sustainable aviation fuel tech company; and xF Technologies, an innovative chemicals company.
The annual list of companies is selected by a panel of experts and members of Energy Business Review’s editorial board to recognize and promote technology entrepreneurship.
“We are glad to feature WastAway among the Top 10 Alternative Fuel Solutions Providers 2024 for our latest edition on Alternative Fuel,” said, Jade McDonald managing editor of Energy Business Review. “WastAway’s patented process has been used successfully for more than 15 years to help communities and municipalities solve their solid municipal waste needs – and provide high quality fuels for a constantly evolving marketplace.”
WastAway is poised for explosive growth in the coming years. Two major plants that turn MSW into fuel are set for construction this year. One in Murfreesboro in an industrial area of the city’s south side and diverts 85% of the city’s trash from the Middle Point Landfill. The second is in Kern County California near Bakersfield. It too will divert 85% of the waste processed into renewable fuel and other beneficial products. The two plants will cost an estimated $150 million to build – and will process 400 tons of MSW a day each.
That’s the carbon equivalent of removing 96,000 automobiles from the highway, eliminating 866 billion pounds of carbon from the air and adding 517,000 acres of forest land producing clean oxygen each year.
“We are thrilled to be ranked as a top 10 alternative fuel solutions providers by Energy Business Review,” said Mark Brown, CEO of WastAway. “This listing reinforces WastAway’s rapid growth as an alternative fuels innovator that advances a multi-patented process to power the future of green technology,”
WastAway was founded in 2002 as a subsidiary of Bouldin Corporation, which began in 1959 as Bouldin & Lawson, a manufacturer of agricultural and horticultural machinery for the greenhouse and nursery industries.
