- Description
- Chlorine Dioxide Generator using Gas Chlorine Under Vacuum, • Target chlorine dosage to be maintained - 0.5 thur 4.0 • Both manual or auto-feed system required • System to be run both in 24/7 or in batch mode SCOPE OF WORK Provide chlorine dioxide generator, equipment, installation, start-up services, monthly maintenance and monitoring services for period of one year. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) located at 22675 N. Moorefield Rd, Edinburg, TX is in need of the lease of a Chlorine Dioxide Generator for a water plant. The generator must use gas chlorine under vacuum in order to meet permit requirements issued by the Texas commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) The CLO2 generator associated metering pumps and valves are very difficult to maintain and the chemicals are aggressive. The Texas commission on Environmental Quality TCEQ) requires the CLO2 disinfection system to run at 95% efficiency which can be difficult to maintain. Therefore, leasing the CLO2 generator has been recommended. PLANT DIMENSIONS • AveraQe Flow Rate 0.09 MGD • Approximate CI02 Dose Rate 0.97 mg/L average dose per day • CI02 Use Rate / day 0.7 pounds/day based on seasonal variations • Daily flow: 70,000 gallons per day • Average flow rate: 49 gallons per minute • Average PSI: 50-60 PSI • Source of Water - Surface Raw Water Work specified shall include manufacturing, furnishing, installing, startup, and testing of all equipment necessary to provide a complete on-site chlorination generating system(s) suitable for disinfection of potable water. Contractor shall provide the services of a qualified manufacturer's representative to install, inspect, startup, calibrate, and provide equipment and operator training to Owner's personnel. On-site chlorination generation system(s) equipment furnished and installed for this project shall include, but not be limited to, the following items: All piping, valving, storage tank(s)/reservoir(s) appurtenances, gauging, low chlorine alert system SUBMITTALS A. General The Contractor shall prepare and submit complete and organized shop drawings as specified herein and shall include, but not be limited to the following: 1. Detailed specifications, fabrication, assembly, dimensions, materials of construction, performance characteristics, and installation instructions for all equipment provided. 2. Chlorine Dioxide Generator System equipment drawings, specifications, wiring diagrams, conduit routing plans, and installation instructions. 3. Operation and Maintenance Manuals for each item of equipment specified herein. 4. Any and all submittals should provide the detail pricing for equipment, labor and materials. GENERAL Chlorine Dioxide Generator System(s) equipment shall be furnished with all features and accessories necessary to provide chlorine, metering, storage, injecting, and dosing to disinfect potable water. The proposed system should be plumbed in a manner that it can be taken offline and isolated as to not disrupt regular water consumption of the building(s) that it provides chlorinated water to during normal working conditions. This will allow for the system to be maintenanced or serviced during regular working hours. The controls shall provide the following functions: A. Start/Stop of the chlorine generation system(s) based on level in the chlorine solution tank. B. Start/Stop of chlorine dosing pumps and adjustment of speed based on preset residual set point for plant effluent and closed contact from the telemetry system for pump to system operation. Said contact shall open when well pump to waste operation thereby stopping dosing operations. C. Residual analyzer calibration and display with corrected/proportional output. D. Alarms with LCD displayed descriptions and output to the telemetry system: 1. Chlorine Dioxide Generator System fail 2. Low chlorine storage tank level 3. High chlorine residual 4. Low chlorine residual Operational training and warranty of equipment also needed. This is not a request for competitive proposals, but instead a market research method to determine interested sources. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
