 PROFILE
Headwaters is finally getting its head above water. The company, which lost about $74 million between 1987 and 1999, is now cleaning up with its patented binding process that turns coal derivatives into synthetic fuel briquettes. Formerly known as Covol Technologies, the company licenses its technology to operators and supplies the binding reagents, which are made by Dow Chemical. There are 28 third-party facilities in the US licensed to use Headwaters' technology; the company operates one plant (after selling its six others). The IRS is investigating the tax credits that make up most of the company's profits. Headwaters plans to invest in and acquire related companies and increase its chemical reagent sales.
