UNSPSC 20122210: Gas flares

UNSPSC 20122210 Gas flares (Commodity) covers the procurement of flare systems and associated equipment for combustion of landfill gas and similar applications at municipal waste and environmental facilities. State and local governments buy enclosed flare stations, flare demolition and replacement services, and the installation of gas combustion equipment as part of landfill operations and environmental compliance work. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county environmental agencies and special-purpose environmental service entities responsible for landfill operations and waste gas management.

Maryland Environmental Service posted a competitive sealed bid solicitation (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, and a 20% Minority Business Enterprise participation goal. The source shows limited recent activity under this code at the state and local level; the second opportunity in the dataset (Collier County's NRO Wells 118N and 120N Improvements) is tagged to this UNSPSC but involves water well infrastructure and does not align with gas flare procurement scope. Maryland represents the only clear recent activity in the code's actual market.
