Coal-to-liquids (CTL) technology company Clean Coal Technology (CCT) has exclusive rights to market and commercialise technology based on a novel Fischer Tropsch process, which was developed by engineers at the University of the Witwatersrand. The Fischer Tropsch reaction is used to produce syncrude from synthesis gas (syngas). The syngas can be derived from coal, natural gas, or a wide range of other carbon-based feedstocks. This reaction generally produces straight chain hydrocarbons with different chain lengths.
