Description

Givaudan, a global leader in the fragrance and beauty sectors, has adopted Lanzatech’s Carbon Recycling technology to develop sustainable fragrance ingredients from renewable carbon sources. This initiative aims to reduce reliance on non-renewable raw materials and lessen the environmental impact of fragrance production. By transforming carbon emissions into valuable raw materials, Givaudan enhances its sustainable innovation and responsible sourcing efforts, contributing to a circular economy in the beauty sector.

Impact & Result

The research collaboration with Givaudan aims to harness synthetic biology capabilities to advance beyond ethanol production. Together, the companies are working to develop innovative pathways for producing essential fragrance ingredients featured in Givaudan's portfolio. By exploring opportunities for perfumery material innovation, they share a commitment to utilizing sustainable methods that not only enrich the perfumery palette but also benefit the planet.

Solution Spotlight

To address the global carbon crisis, this solution turns carbon waste into a feedstock for new products with the potential to displace 30% of crude oil use today and reduce global CO2 emissions by 7%. Using bacteria, LanzaTech’s carbon recycling technology converts a variety of input streams from industrial off-gases (refining, steel, ferro alloy), unsorted unrecyclable MSW, biomass wastes and residues. In addition, this solution is also able to convert the ethanol into a drop-in jet fuel, which is significant for a sector that currently has limited options to reduce emissions. By converting pollution into fuels and chemicals, it possible to imagine planes powered by recycled GHG emissions or yoga pants starting their life as pollution from a steel mill. Highly versatile, LanzaTech provides a solution to convert pollution into fuels and chemicals, cleaning our air and keeping crude oil in the ground.
