New Zealand-founded carbon recycling company LanzaTech has been ranked thirteenth on CNBC's Disruptors list for 2016.
CNBC's list which features 50 companies from 15 different industries celebrates innovation which is actively revolutionising business landscapes.
LanzaTech chief executive Jennifer Holmgren said she is thrilled the company's technology has be recognised.
"We are disrupting the way the trillion dollar chemical industry thinks about commodity sourcing and supply," Holmgren said. "By reusing waste gas streams, we are a step closer to creating a circular economy which reduces global carbon emissions while creating value."
The bio-tech company which works to turn waste gas from steel mills into ethanol and other high-value fuels and chemicals, was selected from more than 750 nominated companies.
