99 -- AQUEOUS PHASE CATALYTIC OXIDATION SUBSYSTEM (APCOS) SOL 9BE3303536P DUE 062095 POC STEVE JANNEY, Tel:713-483-8505 Contracting Officer:LISA REA, Tel:713-483-8395 Aqueous Phase Catalytic Oxidation Subsystem (APOS) --An aqueous phase catalytic oxidation subsystem (APCOS) is required for post-treating reclaimed water from waste water pocessed in a water recovery system (WRS). The waste water is generated by a crew in a closed life support system and it is purified and recycled for reuse. The APCOS in the WRS as a stream at nominal concentrations of 50ppm total organic carbon impurity to (500 ppb TOC. The APCOS will also provide disinfection. A flow-through process that processes a quantity of 100 L (220 lbs) of reclaimed water in 20 hours is required. The size needed is 24.5'' Wide X 18.5'' Deep X 24.5'' High with weight of approximately 100 lbs. Operation on 110 volt, 60 cycle is required. Three distinct modes of operating the APOCS are required: (1) manual control with automated shutdown safing provisions; (2) local automated control; and (3) external automated control. --Hamilton Standard Space Systems International, Inc. --Delivery of 1 APCOS unit. --All items will be delivered to the Johnson Space Center, Houston TX. --All items shall be delivered by 10/1/95. --Numberd Note 22. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source. --Hamilton Standard is the only company with the facilities and expertise to meet the Government requirements. Hamilton Standard has developed a proprietary process for providing the requirements for removal of residual organic impurities and microbial contamination in reclaimed water. Hamilton standard has the existing special tooling, manufacturing and test facilities, designs, documentation, special fabrication procedures and equipment to support this effort. This procurement is being conducted under the NASA Johnson Space Center Mid-range procedures. (0163)
