Upgrader

Product upgrading is the final step for the production of synthetic fuels and chemicals at a facility utilizing the Rentech Process. The Rentech reactor produces a wide array of hydrocarbons that are hydrocracked (breaking of complex hydrocarbons) and/or hydrotreated (removal of contaminants) to produce ultra-clean synthetic fuels and specialty waxes and chemicals.

Our preferred upgrading technology provider is UOP LLC, the premier refining and petrochemical process technology company. Rentech and UOP, a Honeywell company, maintain the technology and marketing alliance to provide a one-stop solution to developers of commercial synthetic fuels and chemicals facilities worldwide for synthesis gas conversion and product upgrading.
