Flame Spray Pyrolysis (FSP) Process Characterization & Optimization

The contract focuses on characterizing and optimizing the Flame Spray Pyrolysis (FSP) process to enhance the structural properties and performance of catalysts, requiring expert analysis of synthetic parameters and analytical data to drive improvements. The work involves systematic evaluation of synthesis conditions to identify optimal settings that result in superior catalyst morphology, composition, and activity, with the ultimate goal of delivering actionable recommendations grounded in empirical evidence. This subcontract is issued by the Government of Canada through the Department of Natural Resources (NRCan) and is scoped for performance within the National Capital Region, targeting advancements in catalytic materials critical to energy and environmental technologies. The solicitation is open for responses until June 19, 2026, and falls under the NAICS code 541690, indicating its classification as other scientific and technical consulting services. It is not subject to any specific set-aside provisions and is intended for eligible contractors with demonstrated expertise in FSP techniques, catalyst development, and materials characterization. The contract does not provide a designated point of contact, and further details are accessible via the Government of Canada's procurement portal. Participation requires a strong technical background in pyrolysis-based synthesis methods and the ability to translate complex analytical results into practical process adjustments for improved catalyst outcomes.
