Rentech Inc RTK, Rentech Fuel Selected for Military Demonstration

Rentech, Inc. announced that it has sold quantities of its synthetic diesel fuel, RenDiesel(R), for use in a special military vehicle to demonstrate the viability of synthetic fuel for the U.S. Military at the upcoming Air Show at the Selfridge Air National Guard Base.

Rentech's synthetic diesel will be used in a LASSO(R) Utility Vehicle designed and built for the U.S. Military by ICRC/VSE Corporation, which specializes in providing engineering and technical support services to the U.S. Government. VSE  purchased RenDiesel(R) to conduct this demonstration of synthetic fuel for military applications, using their all-terrain light combat support utility vehicle, in accordance with a cooperative agreement between VSE and the U.S. Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory.

The use of RenDiesel(R) in the military all-terrain vehicle follows the purchase of Rentech's synthetic jet fuel by the U.S. Air Force for performance and emissions testing in a turbine engine upon confirmation that the quality and characteristics of RenJet(R) meet the Air Force's specification for synthetic fuels. Fuels produced from the Fischer-Tropsch process, on which Rentech's technology is based, are the only alternative fuel type currently certified for use by the United States Air Force, Rentech said.
