Eco Waste Solutions and ADS Join Forces for Waste Management in the Pacific Air Forces

Innovative Waste Disposal for the U.S. Air Force

In a significant move to enhance military operations in the Indo-Pacific region, Eco Waste Solutions (EWS) has collaborated with Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. (ADS) to deliver cutting-edge waste disposal technology. This initiative is aimed at equipping the United States Air Force, particularly the Pacific Air Forces (PACAF), with an efficient waste management system designed for remote locations. The developments were announced on August 12, 2025, and mark a crucial step in operational readiness and sustainability efforts for U.S. forces.

The Expeditionary Solid Waste Disposal System (ESWDS)

At the heart of this collaboration lies the EWS Expeditionary Solid Waste Disposal System (ESWDS). This advanced system is designed to tackle the challenges of waste management in expeditionary and austere environments. The ESWDS features a modular and integrated military incinerator capable of processing both solid and semi-solid waste. Operating under the demanding conditions often found in military settings, this system can efficiently destroy up to 1,000 lbs. of waste per day, addressing the pressing needs associated with high operational tempos and limited infrastructure.

Addressing Military Waste Challenges

Waste management in military operations has always been a logistical challenge, particularly in isolated or remote locations. The ESWDS provides a timely solution by minimizing the waste burden faced by deployed troops. According to Dave Waldmann, the Account Manager for Eco Waste Solutions at ADS, the ESWDS is fully capable of meeting the specific demands of military operations. “The remote sites, along with the need for high efficiency, call for a system that not only manages waste but aligns with environmental compliance,” he stated, highlighting the dual focus on operational efficiency and sustainability in harsh conditions.

Strategic Partnership

The partnership between EWS and ADS capitalizes on the unique strengths of both companies. ADS is renowned for its expertise in deploying infrastructure in rural and remote areas, while Eco Waste Solutions brings innovative and environmentally friendly waste disposal technologies to the table. The alignment of these capabilities is set to bolster the operational readiness of bases across the Pacific, allowing for a quicker setup of waste management systems wherever and whenever required.

Enhanced Field Operations

The ESWDS is anticipated to be shipped in the fall of 2025, and once deployed, it is designed to be fully operational within hours. This rapid turnaround is crucial for maintaining the mission readiness of bases and supports the broader strategic goals of the U.S. military in the region. With the ability to scale operations, the ESWDS ensures that U.S. forces can maintain their focus on primary missions without being hampered by waste disposal issues.
