This tender document is specifically focused on the procurement of equipment to extend the capability of an existing biomass boiler to support waste-to energy (WtE) combustion. At present, we have a Gilles-HPKI-R 240 kWth grate boiler that can fire a range of chipped biomass fuels. The aim is to expand the capability of this system to a WTE boiler to enable the combustion of a wider range of fuels, including drier pelletised fuels, as well as fuels that are classed as 'clean waste', including: - vegetable waste from agriculture or forestry, - vegetable waste from the food processing industry, - untreated non-hazardous wood waste (formerly known as Grade A recycled wood) The new WTE system will provide a demonstrator of low-carbon technologies and to support a wide range of research activities. The overall specification is divided into 3 parts to be awarded as one contract: Part 1: Fuel silo and conveying system; Part 2: High-efficiency electrostatic precipitator (ESP); Part 3: Flue gas stack with flue gas extraction. Suppliers are requested to offer a complete solution in their return, including offers to all 3 parts of the tender.
