This initiative is currently in the planning stage, with the PIN closing date set for 9 April 2021 at 15:00. The procurement seeks to explore alternatives to chemical dosing in water treatment and phosphorus removal in wastewater processes, with a strong emphasis on implementing electrocoagulation technology. The contracting authority is based in Warrington, United Kingdom, operating under a legal framework that supports competitive tendering for works in the water sector. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in water treatment technologies, particularly those with expertise in electrocoagulation systems. Companies that have significant experience in innovative treatment solutions for potable water and wastewater processes will be well-suited to submit information. Successful suppliers may engage further with United Utilities, providing insights into their capabilities, case studies, and technical specifications, thereby positioning themselves for potential future contracts as this initiative develops. ## Notice Rising volatility in the prices and availability of chemicals for water and wastewater treatment and a drive to more chemical free treatment to deliver our sustainability goals has provided a need to look for alternatives to chemical dosing. With this in mind we are exploring electrocoagulation technology. There are 2 focus areas that are we looking for further potential of electrocoagulation. The purpose of this PIN is to understand the capability of the market with respect to achieving these drivers using electrocoagulation technology. 1. As part of our potable Water treatment 2. As part of our Wastewater phosphorus removal. We are looking for suppliers who can offer electrocoagulation technology in at least one of these areas. As this PIN is a proof of concept, we cannot confirm the estimated date of publication of contract notice at this stage. ### Lot Information Lot 1 This PIN is specifically focused on electrocoagulation technology. United Utilities Water Limited is interested in those companies that have significant, successful experience in electrocoagulation technology. We are looking for suppliers who can offer electrocoagulation technology in at least one of 2 key focus areas: As part of our potable Water treatment, a significant quantity of chemicals are dosed as part of the coagulation process. (Note regulation 31 compliance is essential) As part of the wastewater permitting (UWWTD, WRA), there are a significant number of Phosphorus and Low phosphorus drivers. These drivers are currently met, mostly by dosing chemical coagulants. Please note this is not a call for competition this is merely pre-market engagement whereby United Utilities wishes to understand what is potentially on offer before commitment is made to any formal procurement process. Interested parties are requested to provide information on how your Company could provide this requirement, identifying which specific area(s) you have capability.
