Company patents
LanzaTech, Inc.
Lanza Tech, Inc. demonstrates a strong core in "Fermentation & Biosynthesis," accounting for 68.1% of its portfolio, yet patenting in this area has seen a significant drop so far in 2026 with only 1 patent, a -95.2% decline from 2025. While several categories like "Separation Processes (Filtration, Distillation)" and "Acyclic / Carbocyclic Compounds" showed a remarkable 100.0% YoY growth in 2025, the overall patenting activity appears to have sharply declined across all categories so far in 2026, suggesting a potential shift in strategy or a delay in filings for the current partial year.

Methods for producing organic chemicals from biomass or through fermentation processes, often focusing on carbohydrates or fatty acid derivatives for food, health, or industrial applications.
Technologies and materials for capturing carbon dioxide from gas streams and subsequently converting it into valuable chemical products or materials, rather than simply storing it.
Developing advanced bioreactor designs, fermentation strategies, and downstream processing techniques to optimize yield, purity, and efficiency of biotechnological production.
Systems and components designed for mixing fluids in biological or pharmaceutical processes, often involving cell cultures, RNA synthesis, or nanoparticle formation, with considerations for sterility, automation, and precise control.
Technologies and systems for removing unwanted components or separating desired gases from a mixed gas stream, including adsorption, absorption, and membrane-based methods.
Modifying microorganisms, plant cells, or animal cells through genetic engineering to enhance or enable the biosynthesis of target compounds, often involving metabolic pathway engineering.
Innovations in the physical design and modularity of bioreactor vessels and associated components, focusing on improved handling, scalability, perfusion, or integration within larger systems.
Systems and methods for automated monitoring and dynamic adjustment of environmental parameters (e.g., pH, temperature, oxygen, nutrients) and fluid handling within bioreactors to optimize cell/tissue growth or product synthesis.
Membrane and depth filtration for industrial separation, gas purification, and bioprocess clarification including cross-flow, dead-end, tangential flow filtration, and oil/water separation.
Methods and apparatus for the efficient and selective production of organic compounds, including amines, acids, and esters, often involving catalytic or continuous processes and purification steps.
Catalytic processes and novel catalyst materials designed to efficiently produce hydrogen gas from various feedstocks, including hydrocarbons (e.g., methane, natural gas) and ammonia.
Development of catalytic materials and membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) specifically designed for the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) or carbon monoxide (COx) into valuable chemicals or fuels.
