Topic: Honouliuli WWTP Biogas Upgrading Facility. Hawaii Gas has constructed and is now operating a new high-tech biogas cleaning/purification facility at the Honouliuli WWTP. The facility produces pipeline quality biomethane from the raw biogas and injects it directly into the Hawaii Gas’ supply line that extends to Hawaii Kai.

This presentation will present the new biogas-cleaning technology and project economics.
