đ How Sustainability Innovation Becomes a Strategic Communications Advantage
WÄstAway Leadership Takes Center Stage at SERC, IBCE, American Biogas & SWANA RCon
BRENTWOOD, Tenn. â Feb. 12, 2026 â is showcasing its multi-patented technologies that transform municipal solid waste (MSW) to sustainable fuel â in 30 minutes â achieving 85% landfill diversion at the worldâs top waste recycling and biogas conferences this spring.
Landfills are a burgeoning problem across the U.S. â with more than 1,250 of the leaking, aging toxic dumping grounds nearing or exceeding capacity â and WÄstAway offers a scalable, negative carbon footprint alternative that reduces landfill pressure, lowers emissions and converts waste into clean, green energy.

At scale, deployments achieve annual carbon reduction impacts equivalent to removing approximately 96,000 vehicles from the road, eliminating hundreds of billions of pounds of COâ emissions, or adding 517,000 acres of forest land producing clean oxygen each year.
At the Southeast Recycling Conference (SERC), February 15â17 in Destin, Florida, WÄstAway will highlight its deployable waste-to-energy infrastructure solutions. CEO Steve Napolitan will speak on the panel, âDiscovering New Revenue Streams Through Green Technologies,â and company representatives will be available at Booth #32.
Napolitanâs work over the years with municipalities, utilities and environmental innovators gives an acute understanding of how cities can integrate technology and sustainability without compromising budgets or community well-being. That focus on circular economy design â and a commitment to diverting waste from landfills, reducing emissions and creating new economic opportunities â will be spotlighted at the conferences.

WÄstAway will be a sponsor, exhibitor, presenter and moderator at the International Biomass Conference & Expo March 31-April 2 in Nashville, Tennessee. Napolitan will deliver a panel presentation âTap into the Trillion Dollar Waste-To-Fuel Revolution,â moderated by David Palmer, WÄstAwayâs vice president of engineering. Terry Moore, the companyâs chief business development officer, will also moderate a panel on biogas and renewable natural gas (RNG) at the IBCE. WÄstAway will also host a group of conference leaders for a plant tour at its company headquarters in Morrison, Tennessee after the conference.
âLandfills are not sustainable endpoints for municipal solid waste,â Napolitan said. âCommunities need infrastructure that works now â at scale, within regulatory frameworks, and with real economics behind it. That is the role WÄstAway is playing. We are committed to making the greatest use of waste to make the world a better placeâ
WÄstAway will also participate in the Biogas Americas conference May 18-21 in Detroit, and the SWANA RCon conference Sept. 29-Oct. 2 in St. Louis, Missouri.
WÄstAway is poised for rapid growth in the coming years. The company is working on multiple projects around the world â achieving 85% landfill diversion while producing clean, green, renewable fuels.
