LanzaTech exploring lipids production as part of its CO2 to acetic acid plans; pathways to renewable fuels

Green Car Congress

Should the lab and pilot work prove successful and scalable, they will place a demo plant in Malaysia, Burton said. Part of the challenge is locating sufficient quantities of hydrogen to enable large scale use of the CO 2 in waste gases. Lipids, in turn, are a proven pathway to jet, diesel and gasoline.
