Limestone (#302734)

This tender concerns a framework agreement for the procurement of limestone powder (CaCO3, calcium carbonate) and slaked lime (Ca(OH)2, calcium dihydroxide). These materials are intended for use in flue gas and water treatment processes at Umeå Energi's facilities, specifically at the Dåva Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant and the Ålidhem site. The agreement will cover the supply of these essential chemical compounds, which play a crucial role in environmental protection and operational efficiency. Limestone powder is commonly used in flue gas desulfurization (FGD) processes to remove sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, converting them into calcium sulfite, which can then be further processed. Slaked lime is a versatile material used in various water treatment applications, including pH adjustment, softening, and the removal of impurities like heavy metals and phosphates. Umeå Energi requires a reliable and consistent supply of these materials to ensure the effective operation of its environmental control systems and to meet regulatory standards for emissions and wastewater discharge. The framework agreement is expected to facilitate streamlined procurement, potentially leading to cost efficiencies and ensuring supply chain stability for these critical consumables. Potential suppliers will need to demonstrate their capacity to deliver high-quality products that meet specified technical requirements for purity and particle size, as well as their ability to manage logistics and delivery schedules effectively to the designated Umeå Energi sites.

This is a supplies contract in the trade and industry, environment and climate and energy and power sectors, with a focus on Chemicals, Pollution Control and Power Generation. Located in Sweden, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
