Rentech, Inc., a developer and owner of alternative and clean energy solutions, is building a Fischer-Tropsch (FT) Coal-to-Liquids (CTL) Product Development Unit (PDU) at its Sand Creek facility in Commerce City, Colorado near Denver. The project, which will utilize Rentech's patented and proprietary FT technology, is expected to be the first Coal-to-Liquids project in the United States that could capitalize on the tax credits available for commercialization of this technology under the Energy and Transportation Bills signed by President Bush in August 2005.
