mulpún pilot energy to generate electricity based on coal gasification
Luksic first power project will be operational in Valdivia in 2012
Currently the initiative is to complete engineering feasibility and just beginning the phase of empowerment, along with the development of detailed work.

The Luksic group first bet on energy moves steadily in southern Chile. This is because Mulpún Energy, the pilot project which aims to generate gas for electrical purposes that is driving the arm holding miner Antofagasta PLC Antofagasta Minerals, within Valdivia will be in operation next year.
According to project manager, Cristián Barrientos, "expects to complete construction of the plant during the second half of 2011, began operations during the first half of 2012." For this, he explains, "we have taken the time required to complete an exhaustive studies and works that allow us to monitor all the variables about our project."
In this line, the coal gasification project and "has its environmental permits issued by the authority, with engineering feasibility phase is complete and enabling starting with the development of detailed engineering, "said Barrientos.
In this regard, and despite being a pilot," Barrientos said that on a future commercial rollout, " as you progress through the project engineering, enhances confidence in future results. But certainly, we expect our pilot operation to obtain data that will allow us to perform a scaling to a larger development.

The pilot involves a total investment of about U.S. $ 29 million for drilling, plant and surface water monitoring systems, soil and air, which eventually will generate power through the technique of underground coal Gasification. "
Via this mechanism injects air into the coal that is in the basement to burn and generate gas to produce electricity, once operational, in one of its lines of development includes injecting the Central Interconnected System (SIC).
