Washington, D.C., May 12, 2025 — Burnham RNG, a leader in wastewater and organic waste recovery infrastructure, has been awarded the “Best Places to Work in Greater Washington” recognition by the Washington D.C. Business Journal. This recognition reflects Burnham’s continued investment in building a workplace culture defined by trust, accountability, and shared purpose.
The Washington D.C. Business Journal’s Best Places to Work Award honors companies across the region that prioritize employee engagement, workplace satisfaction, and strong team culture.

Burnham’s culture is grounded in collaboration, humility, and curiosity. The company develops infrastructure that transforms wastewater and organic material into clean water, renewable energy, and nutrients; such complex work demands a high level of cross-team coordination and mutual respect.
“This honor reaffirms what we already know internally: that the way we work together is just as important as the work we do,” says Chris. “Our team is deeply mission-driven—we want to solve real-world problems with practical, scalable solutions.
