Waste
Energy Corp. (“Waste Energy,” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”) is an early-stage company
in the waste-to-energy (“WTE”) industry. We are engaged in the development and implementation of technologies designed to
divert plastic and tire waste from landfills and convert these materials into usable energy sources. Our business strategy is centered
on the use of a specialized thermal conversion process to break down plastic and tire waste into valuable byproducts. This process involves
heating the feedstock at high temperatures in an oxygen-free environment, preventing combustion while causing the material to decompose
at a molecular level.
Through
this process, Waste Energy aims to produce three primary outputs: (i) synthetic diesel fuel, (ii) carbon black, and (iii) syngas, which
can be used to power our conversion systems. Additionally, we may seek to generate revenue through carbon credit programs, subject to
applicable regulatory approvals and market conditions.
Our
business is in its early stages, and there can be no assurance that we will achieve profitability or that our technology will be commercially
viable on a large scale. Any forward-looking statements regarding our potential revenue streams and business growth are based on current
expectations and involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, regulatory approvals, market demand, operational challenges,
and financial constraints.
Waste
Energy Corp. aims to generate revenue through the following key sources:
(i)
Sales of Clean Diesel Fuel and Carbon Black
We
will produce and sell clean diesel fuel and carbon black derived from the conversion of plastic and tire waste. Clean diesel fuel can
be used in various industrial and commercial applications, while carbon black is a valuable raw material for manufacturing processes,
including rubber production and specialty coatings. We are actively negotiating off-take agreements with fuel distributors, industrial
buyers, and chemical companies. Revenue from these sales will be recognized upon shipment and delivery of products to buyers. In certain
cases, buyers may enter into prepayment agreements for secured supply contracts.
4
(ii)
Environmental Credit Monetization
Our
operations are expected to generate environmental credits, including carbon credits, plastic credits, and other sustainability-linked
incentives. These credits may be sold directly on regulated and voluntary markets or bundled with our fuel and carbon black products
at a premium for sustainability-conscious buyers. Revenue from environmental credits will be recognized upon completion of sales transactions
on recognized markets or as part of contractual agreements with off-takers purchasing our products.
(iii)
Consulting Services for Waste Management Companies
We
intend to offer consulting services to landfills, waste management firms, and other industry participants seeking to optimize their waste-to-energy
processes and sustainability initiatives. Our expertise in advanced waste conversion technologies, feedstock procurement, and regulatory
compliance will enable us to provide tailored solutions to clients. Consulting service revenue will be recognized as projects are completed
and upon fulfillment of contractual obligations.
(iv)
Strategic Partnerships, Equipment Sales, and AI Technology Licensing
As
we expand our technology portfolio, we may generate revenue from licensing intellectual property, royalty agreements, and the sale of
proprietary equipment to third parties seeking to implement waste-to-energy solutions. Additionally, we are developing a patent-pending
AI-based emissions monitoring, management, and automated carbon credit creation technology, which we anticipate licensing to industrial
partners, waste management firms, and regulatory agencies. This technology is designed to enhance transparency, optimize emissions reduction
efforts, and automate carbon credit generation, creating an additional revenue stream. Revenue from licensing, royalties, and equipment
sales will be recognized based on the terms of specific agreements and contracts.
According
to a new study from the Yale School of the Environment, , Scientists have found microplastics in brain tissue. Their discovery,
detailed in a new paper, is the latest in a litany of studies finding tiny plastic particles no larger than a grain of sand in virtually
every part of the human body.
According
to the Ocean Conservancy, a dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico—where the Mississippi River dumps untold gallons of polluted water
every second—has expanded to over 18,000 square kilometers in the last decade. Many other such dead zones have also undergone rapid
expansion in recent years.
Lastly,
according to a recent OECD report, Global plastic waste is set to almost triple by 2060.

Investment Company Act of 1940 Considerations
We
intend to conduct our operations so that we do not fall within the definition of an “investment company”
under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Under
Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, a company is deemed to be an “investment company” if it is, or
holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in
securities. We believe that we will not be considered an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act of
1940 because we will not engage primarily or hold ourselves out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting
or trading in securities. Rather, our new business is a services and development business that provides a turnkey set of services for
companies to develop and integrate blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies into their business operations.
Under
Section 3(a)(1)(C) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, a company is deemed to be an “investment company” if it is engaged,
or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and owns or proposes to acquire
“investment securities” having a value exceeding 40% of the value of our company’s total assets (exclusive of U.S.
Government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis, which we refer to as the “40% test.” We intend to monitor
our holdings and conduct operations so that on an unconsolidated basis we will comply with the 40% test. Nevertheless, because we may
accept tokens, coins or equity in payment for our services, to the extent permitted under applicable law, we may acquire “investment
securities” having a value exceeding 40% of the value of our company’s total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities
and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. In that case, we intend to rely on a safe harbour exemption from the Investment Company Act
of 1940 for so-called “transient investment companies.”
Consistent
with the “transient investment company” safe harbour, we will have to reduce our holdings of “investment
securities to not more than 40% of our total assets as soon as is reasonably possible and in any event within one year from the
earlier of (i) the date on which we own securities and/or cash having a value exceeding 50% of the value of our company’s
total assets on either a consolidated or unconsolidated basis or (ii) the date on which we own or propose to acquire
“investment securities” having a value exceeding 40% of the value of our company’s total assets (exclusive of U.S.
government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. This reduction could be attempted in several ways, including the
disposition of securities and the acquisition of other assets that would not constitute investment securities for purposes of the
Investment Company Act of 1940. If we are required to sell securities, we may sell them sooner than we otherwise would, the sales
may be at depressed prices, and we may never realize the anticipated benefits from, or may incur losses on, those investments. We
may not be able to sell some investments due to contractual or legal restrictions or the inability to locate a suitable buyer. We
may also incur tax liabilities when we sell our assets. If we decide to try to acquire additional assets that would not constitute
investment securities, we may not be able to identify and acquire suitable assets. If these steps do not achieve a sufficient
reduction in our holdings of investment securities within the prescribed period, we will be forced to liquidate some of our
securities holdings and invest the proceeds in U.S. government securities and cash items, with a potential loss.
9
Because
we can rely on the “transient investment company” safe harbour only once during any three years, we may not accept tokens,
coins or equity in payment for our services during the period that this safe harbour is not available.
If
we become obligated to register our company as an investment company, we would have to comply with a variety of substantive requirements
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 imposing, among other things:
●
limitations
on capital structure;
●
restrictions
on specified investments;
●
prohibitions
on transactions with affiliates; and
●
compliance
with reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy disclosure and other rules and regulations that would significantly change our operations.
If
we were required to register our company as an investment company but failed to do so, we would be prohibited from engaging in our business,
and criminal and civil actions could be brought against us. In addition, our contracts would be unenforceable unless a court required
enforcement and a court could appoint a receiver to take control of us and liquidate our business, all of which would have a material
adverse effect on us.
Employees
As
of April 21, 2025, we have two executive officers, Scott Gallagher, who is our president, and Braden Glasbergen, who is our chief financial
officer, secretary, and treasurer and no employees. Our management oversees all responsibilities in the areas of corporate administration,
business development, and research. We also employ consultants on an as-needed basis to provide specific expertise in areas of product
design and development and other business functions including marketing and accounting. We intend to expand our current management to
retain skilled directors, officers, and employees with experience relevant to our business focus.
