Pretreatment System for Greywater Reuse

THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI), A MARKET SURVEY REQUEST IN SUPPORT OF THE FOLLOWING STUDY. No contract will be awarded from this announcement. This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP) or an announcement of a forthcoming solicitation, nor is it a request seeking offerors to be placed on a solicitation mailing list. Response to this survey is voluntary and no reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this market survey and any follow-up information requests. No solicitation document exists at this time, and calls requesting a solicitation will not be answered.

The purpose of this questionnaire is to obtain information on local black water testing capabilities to support  water treatment system science and technology program.  The current and future demands of a highly mobile, resource-limited, Forward Operating Base (FOB) camp call for new advancements in technologies for wastewater treatment and reuse.  The Government must continue to improve and optimize its water management to meet mission requirements.  The need for reductions in the water supply burden of FOB operations and the safe discharge of wastewater require innovative technologies with the capability to treat black water (i.e., toilet, kitchen) so that it can be discharged into the environment, thus eliminating the need for waste hauling.  GVSC currently has the need to test and evaluate containerized black water treatment systems in order to gather data for future Army black water treatment system requirements.
