Bench-Scale GAC Renewal Feasibility Testing

The contract seeks to conduct bench-scale laboratory testing to assess the feasibility of rejuvenating granular activated carbon that has been treated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances using either thermal or chemical regeneration techniques. The goal is to determine whether these methods can effectively restore the adsorption capacity of the carbon material, potentially offering a sustainable alternative to disposal and reducing long-term containment costs associated with PFAS-laden media. The work will focus on small-scale, controlled experiments to evaluate regeneration efficiency, operational parameters, and material recovery rates under simulated conditions. Performance of the work is required at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, with a response deadline of May 15, 2026, and the contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541380, indicating its alignment with scientific and technical consulting services. The project is managed by the Department of Defense through the FA5004 354 Cons Pk office, reflecting its relevance to military environmental remediation efforts. No specific point of contact is listed, and no set-aside provisions are specified, leaving the opportunity open to qualified subcontractors capable of delivering laboratory-based analytical services in environmental engineering.
