UNSPSC 20122202: Flare burners

UNSPSC 20122202 Flare burners, a Commodity code, covers enclosed flare systems and related equipment that state and local governments procure to combust landfill gas and manage waste-derived emissions at sanitary landfills. The work involves the supply, installation, and integration of flare combustion units designed to oxidize methane and other volatile organic compounds from landfill operations, typically bundled with site preparation, demolition of legacy equipment, and ancillary mechanical and control systems. State and local environmental service agencies and sanitary-waste authorities are the primary buyers under this code.

Maryland Environmental Service posted a competitive sealed bid (IFB 1274025) in June 2026 for construction of a new enclosed flare system and demolition of existing flares at the Brown Station Road Sanitary Landfill in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, with bids due July 16, 2026. The scope required all materials, equipment, labor, and incidental services to construct the new enclosed flare system and remove the existing F1 and F2 flares at 3500 Brown Station Road, Prince George's County, under a 20% Minority Business Enterprise participation goal. Recent activity under the code is limited, with the Brown Station Road project representing the primary documented state or local solicitation available; geographic coverage is not sufficiently dense to characterize broader regional patterns.
