United Utilities has gone out to tender with a framework contract for grit recycling services contract worth an estimated £2.4 million.
The scope of the agreement covers the provision of a sustainable and commercially efficient solution for the recycling and/or re-use of its wastewater sewage grits.
Grit is collected from the company’s wastewater sites by its grit and screenings framework providers who transport the screenings to landfill and the grits to one of 3 designated UUW transfer sites, where the grit is then tipped onto designated areas.
The supplier will be responsible for any drying and separating of grits from oversized fractions or screening content, sourcing of end disposal outlets and the loading and transportation to the chosen end disposal outlet.
The contract will run for an initial five year term with the option to extend the agreement for three up to a further three years.
