A -- LARGE SCALE WATER STERILIZATION SYSTEM SOL CBD100 DUE 040398 POC Paul Grahovac WEB: Idaho National Engineering & Environmental Laboratory Procurement Homepage, http://www.inel.gov/procurement/litco/index.html. E-MAIL: Paul Grahovac, pg2@inel.gov. A -- LARGE SCALE WATER STERILIZATION SYSTEM . Contact Mr. Paul Grahovac. Potential technology development and licensing opportunity with Lockheed Martin Idaho Technologies Company (LMITCO), the prime operating contractor for the Department of Energy at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL). LMITCO has developed a new concept for large scale sterilization of water. This process is applicable to surface water for municipal drinking water or possibly water discharged from large food processing facilities. This concept consists of a new technology that implements a low maintenance, non-electrical, multi-megawatt, acoustic power source that is designed to treat up to 2 million gallons per hour of pathogen-contaminated water. Also, this system when working at an appropriate level of thermodynamic efficiency is not expected to be significantly more expensive than the use of chlorine. Successful implementation of this technology would address issues surrounding the use of chlorine, generation of chlorine byproducts, and micro-organism resistance to chlorine treatment. This technology has significant economic advantages for industrialized urban areas that rely on surface water supplies subject to contamination with pathogens. LMITCO is seeking a written indication of interest from industry partners who would consider funding collaborative technology development and/or entering into a license agreement for the purpose of developing and commercializing this technology. License terms will include an up-front licensing fee and a running royalty based on a percentage of sales. This is not an opportunity to provide goods or services to LMITCO or the Department of Energy. This Request for Interest (RFI) will close to response 30 days after publication. Interested parties should send a description of their company and their ability to commercialize this technology to: Paul Grahovac, Account Executive Technology Transfer Office, LMITCO, P. O. Box 1625, Idaho Falls, ID 83415-3805. E-mail is pg2@inel.gov. (0062)
