Technology Brief	The LanzaJet process can use any source of sustainable ethanol for jet fuel production, including, but not limited to, ethanol made from recycled pollution, the core application of LanzaTech’s carbon recycling platform. Commercialization of this process, called Alcohol-to-Jet (AtJ) has been years in the making, starting with the partnership between LanzaTech and the U.S Energy Department’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL). PNNL developed a unique catalytic process to upgrade ethanol to alcohol-to-jet synthetic paraffinic kerosene (ATJ-SPK) which LanzaTech took from the laboratory to pilot scale.
Additional Information	Our flagship commercial facility, Freedom Pines Fuels, is located near Soperton, GA, in the United States. This 10 million (US) gallon per year (MGPY) facility is our final step on the path to fully commercialize our Alcohol-to-Jet technology. The facility will source sustainable and waste-based ethanol for the production of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) and renewable diesel fuel, and is set to come online in 2024. Suncor, British Airways, and ANA have contracted to take a significant portion of the sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel produced by LanzaJet at its Freedom Pines Fuels facility to provide their jet fuel and distillate customers with sustainable energy solutions.
