Proven technology creating sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel from recycled waste and low carbon sources
About us
LanzaJet is a leading sustainable fuels technology company dedicated to accelerating the energy transition by embracing the circular economy. We are making safe, sustainable fuels from waste and low carbon sources a reality today. We are both an established Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) technology provider, and a sustainable fuels producer. Our patented technology, combined with our extensive know-how and deeply experienced team, makes sustainable fuels a reality today. Through the use of our patented LanzaJetTM Alcohol-to-Jet (AtJ) technology, we are able to create SAF and renewable diesel from waste-based and sustainable ethanol sources. These sources include ethanol created from feedstocks such as low-carbon sugarcane, energy crops, forest residuals, agricultural wastes, and organic waste, just to name a few. There are even existing commercial pathways through our founder, LanzaTech, that can utilize industrial waste gases to create ethanol. With such a widely available starting point, feedstock is readily available and accessible around the world. In this way, we are creating a global, fully circular, carbon recycling economy to enable the decarbonization of the aviation and transportation industries. LanzaJet was formed through the contributions of our investors which include LanzaTech, Suncor Energy Inc., Shell, Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and British Airways and participation from ANA and Breakthrough Energy. The backing from these organizations is significantly accelerating LanzaJet’s commercial deployment, and is demonstrating a joint commitment to creating a resilient, lower carbon future.

Australia is making significant strides in its commitment to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF) as outlined in the recent Aviation White Paper: Towards 2050. The country’s ambitious agenda to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and develop a robust domestic SAF industry is evident in its continued focus on innovative technologies and partnership. This commitment is backed by A$1.7 billion ($1.15 billion) in funding to accelerate the development of SAF and new feedstocks. LanzaJet is proud to be part of this momentum, with two key projects announced this year. We’re working with Jet Zero Australia to develop the nation’s first ethanol-to-SAF plant, a pioneering effort that will help establish a new standard for sustainable aviation in Australia. Additionally, our partnership with Wagner Sustainable Fuels will see the deployment of CirculAir™, our joint technology solution with LanzaTech, at their Brisbane SAF Refinery – Australia's first MSW-to-SAF facility – further advancing Australia’s leadership in SAF production. As Australia takes bold steps towards achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, LanzaJet is committed to supporting these initiatives through our innovative technology and strong collaborations. Our efforts are paving the way for the next generation of aviation, with sustainability at its core—both in Australia and across the globe.

Progress in sustainable aviation continues with the groundbreaking of SAFFiRE Renewables’ pilot plant at Conestoga Energy’s Arkalon facility in Liberal, Kansas. This plant will convert corn stover into cellulosic ethanol, a key feedstock for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF). LanzaJet VP of Growth and Execution Erik G. Birkerts and Director of Project Development Greg Hall were on site to represent us at this landmark event. Once finished, this pilot plant will process 10 tons of corn stover daily, producing ethanol that can be upgraded into SAF with a carbon footprint at least 83% lower than conventional jet fuel. LanzaJet is proud to collaborate with our investor Southwest Airlines on a commercial project that will integrate SAFFiRE’s technology with our ethanol-to-SAF process to produce low-carbon jet fuel at scale. #sustainability #biomass #ethanol #cleanenergy #aviation #SomedayIsNow

We’re excited to announce a new partnership with Wagner Sustainable Fuels and LanzaTech in Australia, leveraging our CirculAir™ technology process—an end-to-end solution developed by LanzaJet and LanzaTech. This project will equip Wagner’s Brisbane SAF Refinery with the capability to convert waste-based feedstocks, such as industrial waste, into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF), helping to decarbonize the aviation industry. Supported by investments from Boeing and the Queensland Government, this project will create jobs in Queensland, enhance Australia’s energy security, and contribute to global efforts to reduce aviation emissions. By combining LanzaTech’s carbon recycling technology with LanzaJet’s Alcohol-to-Jet process, CirculAir provides a flexible and scalable solution to produce SAF from locally sourced waste feedstocks. We’re proud to collaborate with Wagner Sustainable Fuels and LanzaTech to advance the SAF industry in Australia and work towards achieving net-zero aviation emissions by 2050.

A major milestone for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF)! The Biden-Harris Administration has continued its commitment to advancing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF) by announcing nearly $300 million in Fueling Aviation’s Sustainable Transition (FAST) Grants. This significant investment from Federal Aviation Administration and U.S. Department of Transportation will help decarbonize the aviation sector and support the U.S. in achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. LanzaJet is proud to be among the recipients, with $3.1 million awarded to our Freedom Pines Fuels facility in Georgia. This funding will enable us to install key infrastructure that will increase our SAF production capacity by over 518,000 gallons annually. Such support is crucial as we work to scale SAF production and contribute to the SAF Grand Challenge goals. Government initiatives like these play a vital role in building the necessary foundation for a sustainable aviation industry. We’re committed to continuing our collaboration with the U.S. government and other stakeholders to ensure that SAF becomes a primary fuel source for aviation, reducing carbon emissions, and driving innovation across the sector. Special thanks to Reverend Raphael Warnock for U.S. Senate , Sen. Maria Cantwell, and Office of U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff for supporting this critical new grant program to support SAF! #sustainability #netzero #cleantech #infrastructure #aviation #FASTgrants #Georgia #US
