HAM inaugurates its first Latin American bio-LNG facility in Chile

In Chile, HAM Group and HAM Chile, in partnership with Empresas Lipigas, have inaugurated in the Ñuble region their first Bio-LNG (renewable liquefied natural gas) upgrading and production plant in South America. This milestone will enable the production of liquid biomethane from biogas, which will be commercialized by Lipigas to supply Chilean transport companies and industries, contributing to the country’s energy transition.

The new plant stands out for its modular, containerized “plug & play” design, made up of six independent, easily interconnected modules: three dedicated to biogas treatment (cleaning and liquefaction) and three providing auxiliary services such as water and dry air supply. Thanks to this configuration, the facility was installed and commissioned in reduced timeframes.
