UNSPSC 47101606: Corrosion control chemicals

UNSPSC 47101606 Corrosion control chemicals is a Commodity code covering the supply and delivery of chemical products used by state and local water and wastewater utilities to manage corrosion, odor control, and treatment of drinking water and effluent. Recent solicitations show municipalities and utility authorities procuring hydrogen peroxide and Peroxide Regenerated Iron Sulfide Control (PRISC) for pump station corrosion management, magnesium hydroxide slurry for hydrogen sulfide control in collection systems, sodium bisulfite and sodium bisulfate for dechlorination, aluminum sulfate solution and polyaluminum chloride for coagulation and flocculation, sodium hypochlorite and chlorine for disinfection, and specialty additives including polymers and defoamers for treatment optimization. Issuing bodies span municipal water departments, county utilities, independent school districts, and special-purpose water authorities. The City of Cartersville Water Department, City of Tallahassee, City of Austin, City of Griffin, Macon Water Authority, and Howard County represent repeat or high-volume procurement activity.

Recent opportunities concentrate in the Southeast and Texas, with notable activity in Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Connecticut. The City of Cartersville Water Department issued an IFB for water treatment chemicals across two facilities (Clarence B. Walker Water Treatment Plant and James R. Stafford Water Pollution Control Plant) with bids due October 30, 2026, requesting aluminum sulfate solution, liquid lime slurry, chlorine, hydrofluosilicic acid, sodium hypochlorite, and sodium bisulfite on a line-item basis with NSF-60 approval required and 72-hour delivery capability mandated. The City of Tallahassee issued IFB-067-26-CPW for magnesium hydroxide slurry on a five-year firm-fixed-price requirements contract with a June 16, 2026 bid deadline, specifying rigorous product specs and local vendor preference eligibility for Leon County-area businesses. The Town of Killingly, Connecticut issued multiple sealed proposal solicitations in June 2026 for silicon dioxide defoamer, sodium hypochlorite, sodium bisulfite, polyaluminum chloride, polymer emulsion, and sodium bioxide—all due July 13, 2026—requiring five years' experience in bulk chemical delivery, current HAZMAT endorsements, and NSF/ANSI Standard 60 certification. The City of Austin issued IFB 2200 BYS1051REBID for sodium bisulfite delivery to wastewater treatment plants with a June 9, 2026 deadline and local-business evaluation discounts of 5% for bids under $500,000.
