Rentech's vision is to be a global provider of clean energy solutions. During our nearly 30-year history, we have been developing and applying clean energy technologies for ultra-clean synthetic fuels, chemicals and power production. Rentech and our licensees and have successfully applied the Rentech® Process in facilities that range in size from pilot scale to 300 barrels per day of clean synthetic fuels and chemicals production. The Company's Rentech-SilvaGas biomass gasification process can convert multiple biomass feedstocks into synthesis gas (syngas) for production of renewable fuels and power. Combining the gasification process with Rentech's unique application of syngas conditioning technology and the patented Rentech Process based on Fischer-Tropsch chemistry, Rentech offers an integrated solution for production of synthetic fuels from biomass. The Rentech Process can also convert syngas from fossil resources into ultra-clean synthetic jet and diesel fuels, specialty waxes and chemicals. Final product upgrading is provided under an alliance with UOP, a Honeywell company. Rentech develops projects and licenses these technologies for application in synthetic fuels and power facilities worldwide. Rentech Energy Midwest Corporation, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, manufactures and sells nitrogen fertilizer products including ammonia, urea ammonia nitrate, urea granule, and urea solution in the corn-belt region of the central United States

Rialto Renewable Energy Center (Rialto Project). We are developing a commercial scale renewable synthetic fuels and power facility in Rialto, California from urban woody green waste and processed sewage sludge. The carbon footprint of this facility is designed to be near zero. (More Details)
Rentech Strategic Fuels and Chemicals Complex (RSFCC). We are developing a commercial scale synthetic fuels and chemicals facility near Natchez, Mississippi. The fuels produced at this facility will be among the most greenhouse gas friendly transportation fuels available in the country. (More Details)
Product Demonstration Unit (PDU). Located in Commerce City, Colorado, we believe our PDU is the only operating synthetic transportation fuels facility in the U.S. The facility can produce approximately 420 gallons per day of synthetic fuels and chemicals using the Rentech Process. (More Details)
