Description: Publicly-traded Rentech Inc. was incorporated in 1981. The company is provider of clean energy solutions with a global focus. The company is pursuing the worldwide deployment of the Rentech Process by both project development and licensing. Throughout Rentech's nearly 30-year history, the company and its licensees have successfully applied the Rentech Process in facilities that range in size from pilot scale to 235 barrels per day of synthetic fuels and chemicals production. The Rentech Process, based on Fischer-Tropsch chemistry, is a patented and proprietary technology that efficiently and economically converts synthesis gas (syngas), which can be manufactured from a wide variety of waste, biomass and fossil resources, into hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons can be processed and upgraded into ultra-clean synthetic fuels, such as military and commercial jet fuels and ultra low sulfur diesel as well as specialty waxes and chemicals. The company operates in two business segments: nitrogen products manufacturing, in which the company manufactures a variety of nitrogen fertilizer products; and alternative fuels, through which the company develops and markets processes for conversion of low-value, carbon-bearing solids or gases into valuable hydrocarbons. In addition to its headquarters in Los Angeles, Calif., Rentech owns an operating natural gas-based nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing plant in Illinois.Manufacturing: Liquid hydrocarbon products.
