Excerpted from 8-K filed on 09/02 by RENTECH INC :
RENTECH INC rpts important event.
Item 5. Other Events.
Rentech has agreed to conduct a joint demonstration project with
Thermal Conversion Corp. (TCC) of Kent, Washington. TCC is wholly owned
by EnerTek Partners, an investment group managed by Scientific Advances,
Inc. (SAI), a subsidiary of Battelle Memorial Institute. EnerTek
Partners is composed of major natural gas companies in the United States,
including Brooklyn Union Gas System, Columbia Gas System, Consolidated
Natural Gas, Enron Corporation, Equitable Resource Company and Southern
California Gas Company.

The joint demonstration project will evaluate whether TCC's plasma
technology, which uses a proprietary high-power, induction-coupled plasma
torch and high-temperature reactors to convert natural gas into a
tailored synthesis gas, is suitable for use in Rentech's
gas-to-liquids (GTL) process. Synthesis gas, a mixture of carbon
monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) is the intermediate step in all GTL
processes for the conversion of carbon-bearing materials to liquid
hydrocarbons.

During the two phrase, sixteen week project, the viability of using
the TCC plasma technology in GTL plants will be tested at pilot plant
scale and capital costs will be developed. Rentech will contribute
$60,000 to the costs of the project and will also perform certain
services. Upon successful completion of the project, Rentech has the
right to receive a nonexclusive license to use the TCC plasma technology
and a portion of any future license fees and royalties received by TCC
for use of its plasma technology in any other GTL projects. TCC will
provide the plasma system and receive throughput fees on syngas produced
by its plasma system when used with any GTL process, including Rentech's
technology.
