UNSPSC 11101528: Activated alumina

Type of drying agent possessing a high absorbtion capacity, high surface area, high strength and thermal stability. Widely used as an absorbent, drying agent and catalyst carrier in chemical, petrochemical and fertilizer industries.

UNSPSC 11101528 Activated alumina (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities tagged under this code involve irrigation system installation (City of DeBary, Florida, IFB), structural metals supply (City of Fort Worth, RFP), and law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell cooperative procurement, RFP) — none of which involve activated alumina or closely related absorbent or desiccant materials. The code's nominal scope — activated alumina as a drying agent, catalyst support, or filtration medium — does not align with the work actually being solicited across these opportunities.

State and local buyers do not appear to be currently sourcing activated alumina through open procurement. Unless recent opportunities in this code are miscoded or administrative errors, the code warrants close monitoring only if your firm has activated alumina applications relevant to water treatment, air purification, or industrial process support at municipal, county, or school-district scale. No representative solicitation under this code supports a pursue decision at this time.
