BAA Number FA8051-24-S-0001/CALL #3 PFAS Destruction

Background
The Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) Readiness Directorate (AFCEC/CX) is issuing this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for Research and Development (R&D) focused on Air Force Airbase Systems.

The mission of AFCEC/CX is to provide integrated Expeditionary Engineer Combat Support, Fire Emergency Services, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, and Emergency Management in support of Air Force missions globally. This contract aims to develop innovative solutions for the destruction of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS), addressing environmental concerns associated with these substances.

Work Details
The contractor will develop and demonstrate efficient, environmentally compatible, and cost-effective mobile and static technologies for processing inputs containing solid- and liquid-phase PFAS species.

Key tasks include:
1. Creating mobile and fixed site locations for PFAS destruction;
2. Ensuring low operation and maintenance costs;
3. Utilizing thermal and other methods for PFAS destruction;
4. Designing high efficiency, high throughput systems;
5. Producing solid phase end products or liquid effluent that meet federal/state/local PFAS concentration limits;
6. Implementing separation and sequestration processes for waste products that may be classified as toxic or environmental contaminants.

Place of Performance
The geographic locations for performance are not explicitly stated but are implied to be at various Air Force bases or facilities where PFAS contamination may exist.
