UNSPSC 73101606: Ethylene or derivatives production services

UNSPSC 73101606 Ethylene or derivatives production services is a Commodity code covering chemical treatment products for water and wastewater infrastructure — specifically disinfectants and polymers that state and local water authorities purchase on recurring annual or multi-year contracts. State and local governments buy under this code primarily sodium hypochlorite solutions for potable water and wastewater disinfection and solids dewatering polymers for sludge treatment and thickening. The work involves supply of standardized chemical products meeting NSF and ANSI/AWWA certification standards, with delivery on as-needed or scheduled basis to municipal water treatment plants and reclamation facilities. Issuing bodies are water departments within city and county governments, with Cocoa, Florida and Gwinnett County, Georgia as recent solicitors.

Recent opportunities reflect geographic activity in Florida and Georgia. The City of Cocoa issued ITB B2617COC in September 2026 for liquid sodium hypochlorite (ANSI/AWWA B300 certified, 12.0–12.5% active ingredient) delivering approximately 821,000 gallons annually across Dyal Water Treatment Plant and Sellers Water Reclamation Facility on a one-year term with four renewal options through September 2031, with 5% local preference for Brevard County vendors and a September 23, 2026 response deadline. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued competitive sealed bid PE77023NONST2027000000655 in July 2026 for solids dewatering and thickening polymer applied at Crooked Creek and F. Wayne Hill Water Resources Center, with mandatory bench-scale and full-scale performance testing required by July 22, 2026 (unless pre-approved Polydyne Clarifloc SE-1748), award on lowest cost per dry ton basis, a four-year firm-price term beginning October 19, 2026 with optional renewal periods, and July 30, 2026 bid opening.
