Advanced Refining Concepts LLC, owners of the trademarked ClearRefining technology, a proprietary pollution-free process for liquefying natural gas and other biogases to produce clean fuel products, today announced that it has begun construction on a new production plant in Northern Nevada. The 100,000-gallon per day plant will produce the company's inaugural product, trademarked GDiesel, a clean and efficient domestically produced No. 1 diesel fuel. The facility will be ARC's first commercial plant and is scheduled for completion in January 2010.

The plant, which will be named the Peru Heights facility and has room for expansion, sits on 10 acres owned by the company at the Tahoe Reno Industrial Center, a 107,000 acre industrial park located approximately 10 miles east of Reno, Nev.

"Beginning construction of this facility is an important milestone for ARC, advancing our goal of making America energy independent by reducing this country's need for foreign crude oil imports," said Peter Gunnerman, co-founder of Advanced Refining Concepts. "We expect the GDiesel produced at our Peru Heights facility initially will be used for large fleet operators, power producers or as blend stock."

The facility, which will employ 25 full-time workers, will consist of 10 fully automated ClearRefining units, each capable of producing up to 10,000 gallons of GDiesel per day.

"The location we've selected just outside of Reno is ideal for this venture," said Gunnerman. "The facility has convenient access to natural gas, existing fuel lines and is strategically located near rail and truck lines."
