LanzaTech Nutritional Protein

Secure and Sustainable Protein Built on a Proven
Industrial Platform

LanzaTech Nutritional Protein (LNP) leverages commercial gas fermentation expertise to transform carbon emissions into high-value protein, creating a new pathway for resilient, sustainable food and feed production

MORE PROTEIN WITHOUT MORE RESOURCES

Global demand for protein continues to increase.

At the same time, traditional protein production relies heavily on agricultural land, freshwater resources, global transportation networks, and increasingly fragile supply chains.

Meeting future demand requires a new approach.

Global demand signals, local resource constraints:

Increasing Protein Demand

Decreasing
Available Land

Decreasing
Available Fresh Water

Decreasing
Supply Chain Reliability

LANZATECH ENABLES THE
PRODUCTION OF PROTEIN WHERE IT IS NEEDED

Regional Production

Build protein production capacity close to demand

Supply Chain Resilience

Reduce exposure to global commodity volatility

Protein Security

Strengthen local food
and feed systems

COMMERCIAL REACTORS READY TO FEED THE WORLD

Many alternative protein technologies still need to demonstrate commercial scale.

LNP is built on the same gas fermentation platform that LanzaTech has already deployed at commercial scale.

The operational experience, engineering expertise, and scale-up knowledge behind commercial gas fermentation provide the foundation for LNP.

"Most alternative protein companies are trying to prove they can scale. LNP is built on a platform that already has."

Dr. Zara Summers, LanzaTech Chief Strategy Officer

Made from Air. Not Agriculture.

LNP is produced through fermentation using carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and oxygen, creating a pathway to protein production that can be deployed close to demand while reducing dependence on farmland, freshwater, and traditional agricultural supply chains.

MULTI FUNCTIONAL

LNP is more than a concept. We have successfully produced a high-quality protein ingredient that combines strong nutritional performance with the characteristics needed for food and feed applications, including high protein content, digestibility, functionality, shelf stability, and a clean sensory profile.

Unlike conventional protein systems that require significant agricultural resources, LNP produces protein through fermentation, helping decouple protein production from land and water constraints

ONE PROTEIN PLATFORM. MULTIPLE MARKETS.

LNP is a versatile, high-protein ingredient that supports food and feed applications while enabling regional production, supply chain resilience, and reduced reliance on land and water resources.

Pet
Nutrition

Pet owners increasingly expect products that deliver both nutritional performance and environmental responsibility. LNP provides a highly concentrated protein ingredient that can support next-generation pet food formulations while diversifying protein supply chains.

Livestock
Nutrition

LNP can provide a locally produced source of high-quality protein for poultry, swine, dairy, and livestock operations. By reducing dependence on globally traded protein ingredients, producers can improve supply resilience while lowering resource intensity.

Human
Nutrition

As global demand for protein continues to grow, food manufacturers are seeking ingredients that combine performance, sustainability, and supply security. LNP offers a high-protein solution that can support a wide range of food products.

Functional Food Ingredients

LNP can support emerging food applications where nutrition, functionality, sustainability, and resource efficiency are increasingly important. Its high protein content creates opportunities for product developers seeking innovative ingredient solutions.

POWERING SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTURE

Reduce Dependence on Fishmeal

Create new sustainable protein pathways

Enable
Regional Feed
Production

Feed production closer to aquaculture operations

Built on Experience

LanzaTech has conducted numerous feeding trials with fish and shrimp, supporting the development of protein ingredients that meet the nutritional and performance requirements of the aquaculture industry.

With more than 30,000 tons of protein products sold into aquaculture markets, our team brings deep industry experience spanning product development, application testing, customer engagement, and commercial deployment.

THE FUTURE OF PROTEIN IS

LOCAL

Protein production where demand exists

EFFICIENT

Less pressure on land, water, and ecosystems

RESILIENT

Stronger food and feed supply chains free of ag constraints

SCALABLE

Built on globally scaled industrial fermentation expertise

As global demand for protein continues to grow, the challenge is not simply producing more. It is producing more while preserving natural resources, strengthening supply chains, and supporting regional food and feed production. LanzaTech Nutritional Protein (LNP) offers a pathway to do exactly that.

BUILDING THE NEXT GENERATION OF PROTEIN INFRASTRUCTURE

LanzaTech is working with partners across aquaculture, food, feed, industry, and government to accelerate the deployment of sustainable protein production. Join us on the journey.

The world needs more protein. Not more pressure on natural resources.
