UNSPSC 23152100: Separation machinery and equipment

UNSPSC 23152100 Separation machinery and equipment is a Class code covering the removal, replacement, and disposal infrastructure used in drinking water treatment operations. State and local governments procure under this code for water treatment plant residuals management, including settling-pond cleanup, solids separation equipment replacement, and turnkey installation of treatment machinery. The issuing bodies are municipal water authorities and county commissioners' departments responsible for public water systems. Recent solicitations show activity from Georgia water utilities addressing aging separation infrastructure and accumulated treatment residuals.

Clayton County and Columbia County, Georgia have both solicited proposals for drinking water treatment residuals removal and disposal at the Jim Blanchard and Clarks Hill Water Treatment Plants, with RFPs due July 30, 2026. The City of Holly Hill, Florida solicited a sole source procurement for a WesTech DS43 Dual Shaft Drive replacement unit for softener #2 at its Water Treatment Plant, valued at $113,067.00 including turnkey installation. Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with procurement documents posted to platforms such as Bonfire Hub and local newspaper advertisement. The code shows ongoing demand for equipment replacement and residuals management services at operational water facilities, though the recent opportunity sample is limited.
