UNSPSC 20141900: Gas treating equipment

UNSPSC 20141900 Gas treating equipment is a Class code encompassing equipment and services for extracting, purifying, and processing gases from industrial and municipal systems. State and local governments procure under this code for environmental compliance, wastewater treatment facility upgrades, and refrigerant recovery operations. Recent solicitations show issuing bodies include municipal environmental divisions and water reclamation authorities. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division posted RFP No. 240011 in September 2026 seeking EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimers to extract gases from approximately 50 appliance units per week at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, with extraction required at minimum every two weeks and detailed documentation of gas destruction or recycling. Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities issued an RFQ in July 2026 for a gas purification scrubbers equipment package for the Water Reclamation Facility's Digester Complex Upgrades Project, with qualifications due August 5, 2026. A third solicitation issued by Sourcewell on behalf of multiple jurisdictions in May 2026 was nominally tagged as law enforcement equipment but does not align with the gas treating equipment code scope.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southwest and Mountain West. The Tucson refrigerant recovery operation targets municipal appliance and product gas extraction with one-year initial terms and potential four-year renewals, requiring EPA certification and comprehensive record-keeping of recovered or destroyed refrigerants. The Salt Lake City digester scrubbers procurement is part of a larger facility upgrade involving process and electrical equipment installation, with engineer and contractor coordination roles specified. Geographic spread includes Arizona and Utah; no other states show recent gas-treating-equipment activity in the source materials. Procurement vehicles include traditional RFP and RFQ formats through municipal departments and cooperative purchasing frameworks. No specific dollar values, incumbent vendors, or set-aside designations beyond potential DBE applicability are identified in the posted opportunities.
