LanzaJet, a prominent sustainable fuels firm, and Technip Energies have recently made public their decision to reinforce their exclusive partnership. Their primary aim is to globally promote the LanzaJet® Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) Process technology.

LanzaJet plans to maintain its integration of Technip Energies’ Hummingbird® Technology, which transforms ethanol into ethylene, within its ATJ Process to create sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This extended partnership is expected to capitalize on the collective capabilities of both companies, aiding clients through project engineering, development, and construction, all while rapidly deploying this top-notch SAF technology solution.

LanzaJet's CEO, Jimmy Samartzis, highlighted their global plans for the LanzaJet ATJ Process. The integration of Technip Energies’ Hummingbird technology in LanzaJet's inaugural alcohol-to-jet biorefinery, expected to be finished this year, was emphasized. The enhanced alliance is designed to hasten global engineering and project developments in the face of the pressing decarbonization challenge.

For years, these companies have worked together, with their most recent endeavor being the LanzaJet Freedom Pines Fuels. This facility, due for completion later this year, will significantly boost the SAF production in the U.S., specifically in Soperton, GA. Their strengthened partnership will lead to joint efforts on upcoming LanzaJet projects in several countries, including the U.S., U.K., Europe, India, Australia, and New Zealand.

Arnaud Pieton, the CEO of Technip Energies, underlined the importance of their enduring collaboration with LanzaJet. He emphasized the urgent global demand from both governments and the aviation sector to incorporate SAF into their operations.

LanzaJet has unveiled projects aiming to produce over 300 million gallons of SAF annually using their ATJ Process. Their SAF is designed to be incorporated effortlessly into the existing aviation system but with a much-reduced carbon footprint. With the aviation sector being responsible for about 3% of global CO2 emissions, SAF from the LanzaJet ATJ Process can considerably curtail greenhouse gas emissions.
