Newlight Technologies is a company based in Irvine, California known for carbon sequestration into plastics.

History and corporate affairs

As of January 2019, Newlight Technologies has one facility, located in Huntington Beach, California. It is the Headquarters, R&D, Operations and Manufacturing facility.

As of January 2014, Newlight has two facilities in California.[3]

Technology

Currently, Newlight captures methane from a dairy farm in California.[7] The methane is transported to a bioreactor.[4] From there, the methane is mixed with air and interacts with enzymes to form a polymer trademarked as AirCarbon.[4][5] According to Popular Science, the plastic performs similarly to most oil-based plastics but costs less to produce.[4] AirCarbon has already been contracted for use in desk chairs, computer packaging, and smart phone cases.[4]

Recognition

In 2013, AirCarbon was named the bio-material of the year by the International Conference on Bio-based Plastics and Composites.[6] In 2014, AirCarbon was named Popular Sciences Innovation of the Year.[4][7]
