LanzaTech Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:LNZA) ("LanzaTech" or the "Company") a leader in carbon management solutions, announced it has received a grant of £6.4 million from the UK government's Advanced Fuels Fund (AFF), operated by the Department for Transport (DfT).

The grant will accelerate the development of LanzaTech's innovative DRAGON 1 & 2 projects, each playing a crucial role in the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in the UK. Project DRAGON stands for Decarbonizing and Reimagining Aviation for the Goal ONetzero.

The DRAGON 1 project is LanzaTech's existing UK SAF project that will convert recycled carbon fuel ethanol (including ethanol from LanzaTech's gas fermentation process) into Advanced SAF in Port Talbot, South Wales, using the LanzaJet® Alcohol-to-Jet (AtJ) process.

The DRAGON 2 project is a Power-to-Liquid (PtL) facility that will convert waste carbon dioxide and green hydrogen into ethanol for subsequent conversion into PtL SAF at an adjacent facility using the LanzaJet® Alcohol-to-Jet (AtJ) process. The location for DRAGON 2 in the UK will be determined during this grant-funded project.
