Heavy Bottom.

Rentech's patented process converts gas which is passed through its iron-based
catalyst technology to achieve it's gas-to-liquid conversion. Iron-based catalyst is the
most versatile catalyst available in that it can be used on the widest variety of gas
feedstocks ranging from coal and biomass to natural gas. Cobalt-based catalysts used
by Shell and Exxon are targeted for natural gas giving Rentech the competitive edge for
overall use on a worldwide basis. The following illustration is an example of how
valuable Rentech's gas-to-liquids technology could be to the refinery industry alone.

If a typical 100,000 barrel per day refinery had 15,000 barrels per day of heavy
bottoms material to dispose of, a portion of the synthesis gas produced from that
material could meet the refinery's estimated 50Mw electrical requirements and the
remainder of the synthesis gas could be utilized by the Rentech process technology to
produce approximately 5500 barrels per day of valuable liquid by hydrocarbons.
Assuming a $20 per barrel value for the hydrocarbon products, the value of the
refinery's output could increase by approximately $40 million per year not including the
savings in electrical costs achieved by internal generation in lieu of outside purchase.
