LanzaTech is pleased to be working closely with Technip Energies to support solutions and enable technologies to bend the carbon curve, especially in sectors in need of reducing their emissions. Ethanol, which can be produced from a variety of locally available waste resources, is an ideal substrate for the production of sustainable fuels and chemical building blocks. LanzaTech is collaborating closely with Technip Energies in order to leverage their proprietary Hummingbird® ethanol-to ethylene technology, to provide a carbon efficient pathway to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) via the LanzaJetTM Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) Process.

Strategic partnerships
Joint venture with IBM and Under Armour to advance recycling technology This joint venture brings together IBM s research technologies, Technip Energies engineering and technology expertise with Under Armour s deep technical apparel, footwear and global textile supply chain capabilities to advance the recycling of plastics and fibers across different industries. The goal is to build a new recycling framework and circular economy for polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is commonly used in the manufacture of synthetic fibers, plastic bottles, and rigid food packaging.
Production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) using Hummingbird® catalyst Technip Energies will supply the LanzaJet biorefinery, with its proprietary Hummingbird® ethanol-to-ethylene catalyst. Hummingbird® is a second generation, low-cost process for dehydrating ethanol to produce ethylene. It gives ethylene derivative producers an option to produce niche renewable products from sustainable bioethanol sources. This is the first sale of our proprietary catalyst for LanzaJet s biorefinery which was brought to realization through our R&D technology licensing teams.
Scaling up Agilyx s advanced polystyrene recycling technology Technip Energies will be applying its extensive experience in scaling-up technology to market and license the integrated technologies of Agilyx depolymerization and Technip Energies purification technology, leveraging the expertise, resources, and global presence of both companies. Scaling-up this sustainable process provides a reliable circular economy technology for a major packaging plastic used around the world.
