News! LanzaJet and LanzaTech are teaming up to launch CirculAir™, a breakthrough solution that converts waste, carbon, and renewable power into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (#SAF). This joint offering combines the groundbreaking technologies of LanzaJet and LanzaTech to transform nearly any waste or carbon resource into drop-in SAF.    With CirculAir, we can turn a wide range of waste materials—such as municipal solid waste, agricultural waste, recycled carbon from industrial processes, and even CO2 from the air—into SAF that will reduce aviation emissions by 85% to carbon negative. This process not only meets EU and other national requirements by leveraging waste-based feedstocks, but it also enables countries worldwide to turn their local waste streams into valuable SAF.    CirculAir uses the same feedstocks as other technologies and pathways – Fischer Tropsch, Power-to-Liquids (PtL), Waste-to-Fuels, eFuels – but efficiently processes them to SAF through our ethanol transformation process which is already an ASTM approved pathway.     Nearly any feedstock can now be processed into SAF through CirculAir – offering a clean and efficient process yielding the highest selectivity to SAF available in the market, and flexibility to produce Renewable Diesel with no other by-products.    To learn more about CirculAir, read our press release here: https://lnkd.in/ghED9EJA   #sustainability #circulareconomy #carbon #waste #recycle #ethanol #decarbonization #aviation #SomedayIsNow 

Two Lanza's one great solution! Integrating LanzaTech's gas fermentation technology that transforms a diverse range of industrial solid and gaseous wastes into ethanol that LanzaJet turns into SAF using its alcohol to jet solution. Two specific, commercially viable and technologically mature solutions in one package. Turning polluting liabilities into a valuable green jet fuel - today!

Another segment in the climate solutions series. This company pioneered a technology that combines CO2 with "green hydrogen" (i.e., created through electrolysis using excess wind or solar power) to create an ethanol that can be used for sustainable aviation fuel. This helps solve two challenges at once: (1) what to do with captured CO2 so that it doesn't just leak back into the atmosphere, and (2) how to produce ethanol without diverting vast quantities of agricultural land and food to biofuels. This is a technology that is accessible and scalable even in less-developed countries. This is the kind of innovation that is going to make a difference, and is worth investing in.

LanzaTech and LanzaJet have introduced CirculAir, an innovative initiative aimed at transforming waste, carbon, and renewable power into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This breakthrough offering provides a cost-effective and commercialized alternative to Fischer-Tropsch technology, creating eFuels, power-to-liquids, and waste-to-fuels using an already ASTM-approved SAF production pathway. This pathway leverages ethanol as the bio-intermediate and alcohol-to-jet technology to produce SAF and renewable diesel. “CirculAir brings to market a revolutionary, integrated pathway to convert carbon and waste inventories across our global society, as well as the ability to utilize emerging renewable power supply and CO2 through direct air capture as an economical and commercially viable approach to creating SAF,” said Jimmy Samartzis, CEO of LanzaJet. CirculAir utilizes technology to convert various waste materials into SAF on a large scale. Feedstocks include municipal solid waste, agricultural residues, factory emissions, and CO2 captured directly from the air. This initiative highlights the potential of versatile and abundant waste carbon to create reliable jet fuel, significantly reducing dependence on fossil fuels. LanzaTech and LanzaJet are currently developing joint projects worldwide, including in Australia, New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom. “Over 100 billion gallons of fossil fuel-derived jet fuel are consumed each year. With our joint technology, we can turn that into 100 billion gallons of reliable jet fuel powered by recycled carbon,” said Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, CEO of LanzaTech.

Here at ISL we have seen an uptick in route optimisation consultancy projects as a result of the Simpler Recycling initiative, specifically, how to manage new and/or expanded #foodwaste collection with current fleets. In Germany one of our route optimisation clients is trialing hydrogen RCVs. Hydrogen vehicles have the potential to be effective in the collection of food waste, especially when compared to electric #RCVs, but their effectiveness depends on several factors. Range and Payload Capacity: Hydrogen vehicles need to have sufficient range and payload capacity to collect food waste from various locations without needing frequent refueling or emptying. Infrastructure: The availability of #hydrogen refueling stations is crucial for the effectiveness of hydrogen vehicles. Without a well-developed refueling infrastructure, hydrogen vehicles may face challenges in completing their collection routes. For local authorities, allocating space within their depots is key. Cost: The cost of hydrogen vehicles and hydrogen fuel compared to traditional diesel vehicles as well as electric ones can impact their effectiveness in food waste collection. If the cost of owning and operating hydrogen vehicles is significantly higher, it may affect their widespread adoption in waste management fleets. Many of the current hydrogen RCVs being trialed on the continent are funded through EU R&D schemes so there is no true cost figures upon which to make a judgement. One thing to bear in mind though is to ensure the true, end-to-end costs are considered when comparing electric with hydrogen as well as the impact on the environment, ie, the fuel energy creation has to be considered. Environmental Benefits: One of the main advantages of hydrogen vehicles is their potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, especially if the hydrogen is produced from renewable sources. If the goal of food waste collection is to minimize environmental impact, using hydrogen vehicles can align with that objective. Hydrogen vehicles can be effective in the collection of food waste, especially when paired with a well-developed infrastructure and when considering their environmental benefits. However, their effectiveness may vary depending on specific circumstances and factors such as range, payload capacity, infrastructure, and cost. The trials of hydrogen RCVs in the UK and on the continent are on-going and only time will tell if they are truly cost effective. Unfortunately, we expect that analysis to be available too late for the onset of England wide food waste collection services.
