James A. Rehkopf, Founder
Jim is the founder and owner of Pulse Combustion Systems. He established company headquarters in Payson, Arizona, and managed the development of the company’s pulse combustor and its intellectual property while growing the company organically. His current project is augmenting the company’s combustor technology with two new heat/atomization sources – a low-NOx duct burner, or an indirect gas-fired heater, which ensures zero nitrates in the pulse-dried powder. These new heat sources also give the company the capability to handle pharmaceutical products.
Jim earned a BS from the United States Naval Academy, an MS from the University of California at San Diego, and an MBA from Golden Gate University.
