UNSPSC 47101607: Odor control chemicals

UNSPSC 47101607 Odor control chemicals is a Commodity code that encompasses liquid chemical additives and treatment formulations used to manage odors, corrosion, and sulfide compounds in municipal water and wastewater systems. Recent state and local solicitations show active procurement of sodium hypochlorite (liquid bleach), ferrous iron salts, ferrous chloride, magnesium hydroxide slurry, hydrogen peroxide, and proprietary odor control formulations—typically delivered in bulk quantities (275-gallon totes, tanker trucks, or 55-gallon drums) to treatment plants, collection systems, and pump stations on firm, per-unit-pricing contracts with delivery required within 72 hours of order. Cities, counties, and special districts issue the majority of these solicitations, with water and wastewater utilities as the primary using organizations; issuing bodies include municipal water departments (Cocoa, Cartersville, Killingly, Griffin, Tallahassee), county water authorities (Gwinnett County), and regional water districts (Norwich Public Utilities, Sarasota County).

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, Connecticut, Texas, and California. Representative opportunities include the City of Cocoa's ITB B2617COC for liquid sodium hypochlorite requiring NSF 60/61 certification and delivery to six facilities through September 2031 with annual price adjustments permitted (due September 23, 2026); the City of Cartersville Water Department's solicitation for multiple treatment chemicals including sodium hypochlorite, aluminum sulfate, and chlorine for two facilities with individual line-item awards (due October 30, 2026); the City of Tallahassee's IFB-067-26-CPW for magnesium hydroxide slurry over a five-year initial term with local vendor preference available (due June 16, 2026); and the City of Dallas's thirty-six-month ID/IQ procurement for sewer odor and corrosion control services using ferrous iron salt, ferrous chloride, and bioxide additives at an estimated contract value of $10 million with SBE participation goals (due June 26, 2026). Bidders typically must demonstrate five years of chemical supply or treatment experience, maintain NSF and AWWA certifications, carry hazmat endorsements, and provide commercial general liability and pollution liability insurance.

Local vendor preferences and disadvantaged business enterprise goals appear in select procurements, particularly in Texas and Florida municipalities.
