Summary

• To meet growing energy demand & stabilize atmospheric CO2 levels - need to diversify fuel pool and introduce >30% drop in zero carbon fuels

• The LanzaTech process can capture non-food, waste carbon to produce low cost alcohols

• Alcohols produced via the LanzaTech process are an excellent substrate for conversion to drop-in hydrocarbon fuels

• Commercial alcohol production rates on raw industrial waste gases has been demonstrated at scale

• Compelling volumes of waste gases world wide have potential to make significant impact on the fuel pool

• Collaborating with leading conversion partners, industry agencies, and certification bodies to develop sustainable, low cost, integrated hydrocarbon fuels processes from non-food sources
