Solids must first be gasified. LanzaTech process occurs within proprietary bioreactor; microbe consumes carbon in gas and produces ethanol and protein co-product. Ethanol is an intermediate product that can be further upgraded and converted into high value sustainable materials and fuels. *Today, LanzaTech’s biorefining platform produces ~1 metric ton of protein for every 10 metric tons of ethanol. Circularity-enabled with solid waste carbon gasified and emitted carbon captured and returned to the process.

7 THE WORLD NEEDS SUSTAINABLE SOURCES OF FOOD › Sustainable & Global: Can be made anywhere in the world at low cost using just CO2, O2, H2 and water. Very little land and water use, no crops › Supply–chain security: Domestic feedstocks resilient to macro disruptions; production independent of agricultural or climate variation and weather extremes › Value: Low-cost production and ability to capture carbon credits; improves rural economies by building a market for waste streams (e.g. agriculture residue, CO2 from corn ethanol plants, biomass, etc.) Pictured: LanzaTech Nutritional Protein Produced in pilot facility in Illinois
