LanzaTech
Developer of a process that increases industrial energy efficiency by capturing waste gases (CO, CO2) and converting them to fuels and chemicals
Overview
LanzaTech develops waste gas to fuels platforms that capture waste gases (CO, CO2), making it a suitable technology for capturing greenhouse gas emissions also. The technology enables direct displacement of fossil fuels with biomass derived ethanol. The process produces low carbon fuel using a country's own resources, so it has no impact on food or water security, and is well suited to applications in Asia.
