This tender, titled "Establishing a methodology that supports the assessment of the impact of alternative (advanced) thermal treatment processes (ATT)", is currently in the Tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 6th November 2020. The contract is classified under industry code 90711000, related to environmental impact assessments, and is estimated to be valued between £30,000 and £40,000. The contract period will commence on 23rd November 2020 and run until 31st March 2021, primarily located in the United Kingdom. This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those in environmental consultancy, air quality management, and related sectors. Companies that specialise in advanced thermal treatment technologies or have expertise in syngas analysis will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, providing a chance for innovative solutions that can contribute to environmentally sustainable practices. ## Notice Alternative Thermal Treatment Plant (Pyrolysis and Gasification) have multiple permitting routes under the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016 depending on the composition and waste classification of the syngas. We wish to appoint a consultant to identify a process and supporting evidence that enables the assessment of whether a process should be permitted under Chapter IV IED as an incineration process, based on a technical understanding of syngas composition at the point of combustion. The consultant will be able to deliver a methodology that supports applications and permitting decsions across the wide variance of thermal treatment processes as well as produce technical literature that can lead to the future development of BAT for these processes. Additional information: Please follow the instructions given in the request for quotation pack and apply directly to the buyer. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee2f5088-414f-49ae-b645-6a8a1bc7f00e | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Single tender action (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Oct 2020 | | Submission deadline | 6 Nov 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 23 Nov 2020 - 31 Mar 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR ENVIRONMENT FOOD & RURAL AFFAIRS | | Locality | WEST MALLING | | Post town | Rochester | | Postcode | ME16 8EA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ4 Kent | | ITL 3 | TLJ45 Mid Kent | | Local authority | Maidstone | | Electoral ward | Fant & Oakwood | | Westminster constituency | Maidstone and Malling | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90711000 - Environmental impact assessment other than for construction - 90731100 - Air quality management - 90731300 - Air pollution protection services ## Release History - 19 Oct 2020 at 09:18 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee2f5088-414f-49ae-b645-6a8a1bc7f00e - 19 Oct 2020 at 08:52 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee2f5088-414f-49ae-b645-6a8a1bc7f00e ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ee2f5088-414f-49ae-b645-6a8a1bc7f00e 19th October 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9b1eaf81-15cd-48e3-9456-8ec0e1c2ddc3 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/2339bc30-dc73-4785-b20f-b3696303c102 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
