Lanza and Pacific Northwest National Labs, have developed gas fermentation technology and associated processes that produce ethanol and ultimately the commercial processes that manufacture SAF.

In 2018, ANA signed a partnership with Mitsui & Co. Ltd, an investor in LanzaTech’s catalytic technology.
