UNSPSC 20142301: Pneumatic methanol injections skids

UNSPSC 20142301 Pneumatic methanol injections skids (Commodity) covers equipment and services for extracting, processing, and documenting the removal of refrigerants and gases from appliances and industrial equipment at state and local facilities. Based on recent solicitations, the code encompasses EPA-certified refrigerant recovery and reclamation work, including the extraction of Freon, mixed gases, and refrigerants from collected units, coupled with required documentation of gas destruction or recycling. State and local buyers under this code include municipal environmental and sustainability divisions as well as cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple counties and jurisdictions. Work solicited includes bi-weekly or more frequent extraction cycles from dozens of units per week, with pricing typically structured around per-unit extraction fees, materials (Freon, mixed gas, refrigerant), and tiered labor rates for standard, after-hours, and holiday service windows.

The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP 240011 for Gas Extraction and Removal services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, due September 19, 2024, seeking an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer to extract gases from approximately 50 units per week with a one-year initial term and up to four one-year renewals. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment with a June 16, 2026 deadline, though this opportunity appears unrelated to the nominal scope of pneumatic methanol injection skids and does not represent typical activity under the code. Recent verified activity concentrates in the Southwest, specifically Arizona, with gas extraction and refrigerant recovery driving municipal sustainability initiatives. The code shows limited recent state and local solicitation volume overall, with the Tucson opportunity representing the primary documented alignment to the code's stated scope.
