LanzaTech and Tadweer to explore collaboration on conversion of waste to alternative fuels
17 February 2023 - 12:30AM
LanzaTech Global, Inc. ("LanzaTech"), an innovative Carbon Capture
and Transformation ("CCT") company that transforms waste carbon
into materials such as sustainable fuels, fabrics, packaging, and
other products that people use in their daily lives, and the Abu
Dhabi Waste Management Company (“Tadweer”), the leading entity
responsible for the development of waste management services in Abu
Dhabi and a main key player that supports the adoption of the
Emirate’s circular economy, today announced a collaboration to
explore business opportunities to develop a large-scale conversion
plant for transforming solid municipal waste into sustainable
alternative fuel.
Eng. Ali Al Dhaheri, Chief Executive
Officer of Tadweer, said: "This is another great
partnership we are exploring in 2023 – the UAE's Year of
Sustainability. It exemplifies our commitment to partnering with
leading waste management entities and driving sustainability across
our organization. We believe that waste is a resource to be
harnessed, and with LanzaTech's support, we aim to make this a
reality".
"The project represents a tremendous opportunity
to protect the planet by turning waste carbon into sustainable
aviation fuel, keeping fossil fuels in the ground,"
said Jennifer Holmgren, Chief Executive Officer of
LanzaTech. "The carbon found in municipal solid waste,
which is piling up in landfills or being incinerated globally, can
play a critical role in eliminating the virgin fossil resources
used to make fuels and chemicals. It is a testament to the UAE's
leadership and strong sustainability agenda that our technology has
found a home here. This collaboration further advances the US and
UAE's Partnership for Accelerating Clean Energy (PACE) and provides
a foundation for deepening cooperation on circular economy and
low-carbon fuels."
