As Ohio manufacturers, start up companies and individuals look to power � and benefit from � the emerging Green Economy, an Akron-based company is developing a product to capture waste heat and solar thermal energy, converting it into electricity. Rexorce, a privately held company founded by CEO Philip Brennan and CTO Michael Gurin, is developing the ThermafficientTM heat engine. This system recovers thermal energy from industrial and commercial waste heat, solar thermal, bottom and top cycling in power plants and other sources. That energy, in turn is converted into electricity to power Ohio's homes and companies.
