Puerto Gaitan’s
elevation is approximately 149 meters (489 feet) above mean sea level (MSL),
the average ambient temperature is 28 ºC (82.4°F), the annual rainfall
ranges from 2000 to 2700 mm (approximately 79 to 106 inches) and a
relative humidity of 80% during the wet season and 64% during the dry
season. The dry season runs from December to March and the rainy (wet)
season from March to December.

If you can provide
us with a system as described above, please submit to us price
information and suitable models/sizes, including
catalogues/brochures/leaflets, etc., that will provide the following
information:
1.
Process Overview and
recommended operating conditions
2.
A general process
flow diagram (PFD) and/or a piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID)
for a typical unit
3.
Main features of the
incineration unit and auxiliary equipment required (size, incineration
capacity, energy efficiency factor, type of fuel(s) that unit can
handle, amount of fuel used per hour by the incinerator and anticipated
destruction efficiency for hazardous constituents)
4.
Residue left over
from the incineration of waste materials and its final destination
(landfill, hazardous waste landfill, compost etc.)
5.
Operating cost, fuel
and maintenance
6.
Other Utility
requirements: electricity (110, 220, 440 or other voltages and required
amperage or wattage for each), process water, cooling water, etc.
7.
Preventive
maintenance schedule and recommended frequency
8.
Staffing
requirements. Required number of workers per shift plus support staff
9.
Training
requirements for operating and maintenance staff
10.
Minimum education
level plus any specialized training, such as instrumentation, chemical
plant operation and such.
11.
Leading causes of
equipment failure
12.
Siting Requirements,
incinerator layout (including plan and elevation views) and setup
diagram (space requirements)
13.
Layout diagrams
should clearly show which components will be provided “By Others” (or
“By Ownwer”) and which will be part of the “Vendor’s Package”
14.
Can a unit this size
be shipped as a single, skid-mounted unit, or will it require field
assembly? (The unit will need to come to a Colombian port - probably the
Port of Buenaventura - by ship, and either by flat-bed truck or by
railroad car from Buenaventura to Puerto Gaitan. Therefore, there may
be size and weight limitations).
15.
The total capital
investment for the incineration system:
·
Purchased
equipment costs, including flue gas scrubbing systems, monitoring
equipment, control panel(s), etc.
·
The costs of
installation (foundations, electrical, piping, etc.), if you provide
this service. If not, the cost of providing a trained consultant to be
on-site during the installation of the unit
·
Costs
related to the installation, including design, engineering,
construction, start-up, testing, and contingencies.
·
Shipping
cost to the Port of Buenaventura, Colombia (if you handle overseas
shipping).
16.
An estimate of the
Time required for the design, construction, equipment delivery, on-site
assembly, commissioning and start-up of the Unit
17.
Through the recovery
of the waste heat, can we generate both electricity and useful heat
(i.e. steam)? What would be the Additional Required Cost? And how much
electricity can be produced?
