Texas has become the “Energy Capital of the World” and is leading the way in production of both traditional and renewable sources of energy.  A state larger than any European country with landscapes ranging from major metropolitan to rural, or deserts to forests to coastal areas, Texas has a wide range of environmental challenges affecting its diverse communities.  The state is known for its oil and gas reserves and abundant industry, but it’s also home to newer, cleaner sources of energy such as solar farms, wind farms, and hydrogen production plants.  All that energy must go somewhere – be it transmitted on Texas’s own electrical grid, stored in batteries made at one of the state’s battery factories, transmitted via pipeline, or shipped out by road, rail, or water – and Texas does it all.

Now in its 42nd year, the International Conference on Thermal Treatment Technologies & Hazardous Waste Combustors (IT3/HWC) provides a forum for the discussion of state-of -the-art technical information, regulations, and public policy on thermal treatment technologies and their relationship to air emissions, greenhouse gases, and sustainability. Panels and presentations will address various aspects of waste management using thermal treatment processes and provide useful insight into associated costs, risks, and impacts.

New topics added for 2026 include waste-to-energy pyrolysis, AI implementation in manufacturing, and biocarbon/biogas applications production.
