- Description
- The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division (NSWCCD) seeks information from potential sources that can provide commercially available, off the shelf equipment or technologies for solids screening, sludge dewatering and sorption technologies. Equipment or technologies shall be used in confined spaces with limited access. Small, compact, robust, user friendly equipment or technologies are sought. Technologies or equipment shall be operable by a maximum of one individual. Technologies or equipment shall operate with salt/brackish water. Technologies or equipment shall operate intermittently with non-operation spans ranging from hours to months. Solids screening equipment or technologies shall process wastewater with a nominal 60-gpm flow rate; maximum 90-gpm flow rate; 2,500 mg/L average total suspended solids (TSS); and a maximum particle size of 0.25-inches. Solids screening equipment or technologies shall screen particles greater than 0.5 mm to greater than 20% solids. Solids are dense, hard particles (e.g, pebbles, calcium carbonate solids) that easily dewater. Solids screening equipment or technologies shall operate and withstand sharp edge solids and long, soft fibrous materials. Sludge dewatering equipment or technologies shall process metal hydroxide sludges with roughly 1% solids with a maximum flow rate of 8-gpm and maximum daily volume of 1,000 gallons. Sludge dewatering equipment or technologies shall dewater solids to greater than 10% solids. Sludges are fine metal hydroxide particles from iron salt precipitation and settling with or without polymer addition. Sorption equipment or technologies shall process wastewater with a nominal 60-gpm flow rate, a maximum 90-gpm flow rate and less than 50 mg/L TSS. This announcement seeks actual media (e.g., carbon, impregnated carbons, resins) versus sorption media housing and engineered systems. Sorption media equipment or technologies shall remove heavy metals and/or cyanide. Heavy metal removal includes; but is not limited to; copper, zinc, lead and cadmium. Treated wastewater metals and cyanide levels shall be less than 0.5 mg/L. Equipment or technology uses will allow unconventional media useful life spans (e.g, < 100 bed volumes) for certain application. Potential offerors are requested to respond with technical documentation supporting the commercially-viable technology, equipment or system, including: (a) general description, (b) performance data, (c) influent requirements or limitations (d) size (L x W x H), (e) weight, (f) human interaction requirements and abilities, (g) required resources, (h) capital cost, (i) operating cost, (j) processing capacity, (k) description of technology maturity or demonstrations conducted to date, (l) current commercial, industrial, or military applications, (m) quantity of systems sold or in use commercially, (n) company location, (o) manufacture locations, (p) rental or test equipment availability, (q) rental or test equipment cost. Technical, industry, or professional society certifications or endorsements should be provided, if available. The submittals should consist of no more than ten pages of text, including data and/or illustrations and are due by June 30, 2009. This synopsis is for information purposes and to identify potential technologies and offerors. This sources sought announcement does not constitute a request for proposal (RFP) and does not obligate the government in any way to purchase or test any of the potential solutions offered. Furthermore, it does not commit the government to pay for any information development or proposal costs in response to the sources sought announcement. Submit responses for this synopsis to Mr. John Bendick by e-mail (john.bendick@navy.mil) or by mail to Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division, Attn: John Bendick, Code 634, 9500 MacArthur Blvd., West Bethesda, Maryland 20817-5700.
