46 -- WASH WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEM SOL F40650-97-R-0020 DUE 062797 POC Tony Clayborne, Contracting Officer, (615) 454-7841 Arnold AFB, located in Tullahoma, Tennessee has an immediate requirement to purchase a wash water purification system designed to remove free and highly emulsified oils and detergents (including citrus based detergents) prior to reuse or discharge to the sanitary sewer. The proposed system must have the capability to reduce: * Highly emulsified oil solution from 30,000 parts per million (ppm) oil and grease to <1 ppm with no visible sheen; * Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) Lead from 5 ppm to <0.05 ppm; * Total suspended solids from 5,000 ppm to <10 ppm; * Turbidity from 50,000 NTU to <10 NTU; * Aromatics, Chloroalkenes, PCE, Nitroaromatics, and free and complex Cyanides from 100 ppm to <1 ppm * Benzene, DCE, Phenol, Carbon Tetrachloride, and TCE from 100 ppm to <1 ppm; * Vinyl chloride, NDMA, TCA, Chloroform, 1,4-Dioxane, and Methylene Chloride from 2 ppm to 1 ppm. The system desired will incorporate at least four processes including: oil/water separation, emulsion splitting and encapsulation, advanced oxidation, and mechanical filtration. The automated system will process wash water at a minimum rate of 400 gallons per hour and provide indefinite storage for at least 4,000 gallons of purified water without biological degradation. Footprint of the system and associated components shall be less than 900 square feet. Utilities including: compressed air, electricity, water, and sanitary sewer connection will be provided within ten feet of system siting. A complete set of engineered drawings stamped by a professional engineer registered in the state of Tennessee are required for submittal to State Regulatory Authorities. The system must be delivered and installed within 8 weeks of contract award. Transportation Maintenance Equipment Corporation is considered to be the only known supplier of the above requirements. Authority: 10 U.S.C. 2304(C)(1). Justification: Supplies and services required are available from only one known responsible source and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This is not a request for competitive proposals. No solicitation documents, specifications, or drawings are available. Simple requests for an RFP will not be considered an affirmative response to this synopsis. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the above requirements.
