NIGP 84551: Petroleum Test Equipment and Supplies (to Determine Recyclability)

NIGP 84551 Petroleum Test Equipment And Supplies (To Determine Recyclability), an Item code, addresses state and local procurement of testing apparatus and consumables used to assess whether petroleum products and by-products meet recyclability standards. The code supports environmental compliance and waste-management programs where jurisdictions need to evaluate petroleum streams before routing them to reclamation or disposal pathways. Buying under this code typically includes viscosity meters, cloud-point analyzers, contamination-detection kits, sample containers, reagents, and calibration standards — the specialized instrumentation and materials required to characterize petroleum quality and contaminant load in laboratory and field settings. Issuing bodies span state environmental and natural-resources departments, county solid-waste and public-works divisions, and municipalities managing fuel-storage and recycling operations.

The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities under this Item code and therefore does not support characterization of current geographic spread or representative solicitation activity.
