Australian GTL using coal

Rentech Inc. has announced that the Latrobe Valley in eastern Victoria, Australia, has emerged as the leading choice for what could be the first “clean” production of gas and sulphur-free diesel and naphtha in Australia from the processing of coal. The proposed project would convert synthesis gas made from coal into the clean diesel and naphtha products using Rentech’s Fischer-Tropsch gas-to-liquids technology (GTL). The project is a result of Rentech’s previously announced Memorandum of Understanding with GTL Energy Ltd, an unlisted public Australian corporation with headquarters in Adelaide, South Australia.
