LanzaTech Global, Inc. engages in the provision of nature-based carbon refining that transforms waste carbon into chemical building blocks for consumer goods such as sustainable fuels, fabrics, and packaging. The company is headquartered in Skokie, Illinois and currently employs 414 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2021-08-06. Using its bio recycling technology, it captures carbon generated by energy-intensive industries at source, preventing it from being emitted into the air. The firm then gives that captured carbon a new life as a clean replacement for virgin fossil carbon in everything from household cleaners and clothing fibers to packaging and fuels. Its technology is designed to enable emitters to reduce their environmental impact and potentially to replace materials made from virgin fossil resources with recycled carbon, supporting their climate goals, meeting mandated targets, and creating a sustainable future. Its technology platform is designed to use a variety of waste feedstocks, from waste industrial gases to biomass residues and municipal solid waste. The company is also developing biocatalysts and processes to produce a suite of additional products.
