Advanced Oxidation Process
Lift Station Odor Control Unit
(AOP-16) LS 11A
Date: October 23, 2023
Proposal Number 2023-WA99
IN —PIPE Because Efficiency Counts
TECHNOLOGY
Lift Station Odor Control
In -Pipe Technology (IPT) is pleased to present this proposal for the capital purchase of our AOP-
16 Lift Station Odor Control unit. The unit uses photohydroionization (PHI) to produce safe,
environmentally friendly hydroxide ions that are very efficient at oxidizing hydrogen sulfide (H2S)
to reduce odor problems from lift station wet wells. Via the venturi effect created by an airflow
eductor, negative pressure is created in the headspace of the wet well to slowly draw hazardous
gases from the wet well and oxidize them inside of the unit itself.
Please see the attached equipment cut sheet and specification for details on the unit's benefits and
operation. In general, an average of 80-95% reduction in H2S gases can be achieved. For stricter
control of H2S emissions requiring either 100% removal or less than 5 parts per million (ppm),
small amounts of activated carbon (less than 1-2 Ibs total) can be added to the exhaust of the AOP-
16.
This proposal will outline the costs of our unit if purchased.
The AOP-16 is meant for continuous operation. Maintenance of the AOP-16 should be performed
every 10,000 hours or every 14 months. In general, maintenance involves replacing the (6) PHI
(UV) light cells, and ensuring other components are operating as intended (and replaced as
needed). If the unit is left installed and not operational, there is a significant risk of damage and
corrosion to the internal PHI mechanisms from exposure to H2S. Please see below for a schedule
of maintenance options available.
Summary of Scope
• The supply of one (1) AOP-16 Lift Station Odor Control Unit at lift station 11A, including
all required piping.
725 N. Central Avenue • Wood Dale IL 60191 • (630) 509-2488 • in-pipe.com

FECHNOLOSsf'
• Installation of the unit to the lift station exhaust valve. The exhaust valve must be detached
of any other equipment prior to installation.
• Electrical hookup to 110v MUST be performed by the City or a county -approved licensed
contractor.
• Sufficient space on a concrete pad must be provided by the City
Available Maintenance Services
Maintenance can be performed by City personnel (maintenance manual to be provided upon
installation). Alternately IPT can perform the following services (prices are per unit):
• Full Service - $500/month. This includes a full replacement of all parts (as identified on
our parts list) every 10,000 hours, monthly inspection on the unit and the monthly
replacement of any optional additional carbon as required.
• Full Service Plus $1,500/month. We will continuously monitor via H2S Acrulog (which
remains our property) and fully replace the parts (as identified on our parts list) every
10,000 hours. Includes a monthly inspection on the unit, monthly replacement of carbon
filters (if selected), and monthly reporting of H2S levels at the exhaust of the unit.
• Monthly Inspection and Carbon Filter Replacement - $300/month. We will inspect
the unit monthly and notify the customer if/when the unit requires maintenance — we also
will replace the carbon (if using) monthly.
• One Time Service (recommended every 10,000 hours/14 months of operation) -
$4,000. We will replace all 6 PHI cells and any other parts as necessary (provided the unit
has not corroded due to H2S gasses allowed in due to the unit being inoperative) and ensure
the unit is ready for an additional 10,000 hours of operation.
• Replacement Activated Carbon and filter bags- $500/501b box.
• Complete replacement of internal PHI unit - $7,500 (e.g. if unit is left installed
inoperative and is corroded due to exposure to H2S gasses for a prolonged period of time)

TECHNOLOGY
Mechanism
The IPT-AOP-16 Odor Control Unit utilizes a high intensity UV light technology which when targeted on
a hydrated Quad -Metallic target in a Ozone atmosphere creates Ozone, Hydroperoxides, Super Oxide Ions,
Hydroxides and Ozonide Ions. The Ozone produced is a safe low concentration, produced by a targeted
high intensity UV light technology. This method is far safer than the traditional ozone generators. Targeted
UV ozone generators do not produce nitric oxide gas or nitric acid and they have a very high efficiency
rating. The additional oxidizers provide a broader range of applications and redundant oxidation gases. All
gases are very aggressive friendly gaseous oxidizers. The gaseous oxidizers produced revert back to oxygen
and hydrogen after they oxidize the organics, bacteria, odor or gases.

We are not aware of any other company that provides complete treatment of noxious
gases (including hydrogen sulfide) exiting lift stations in substantially the same manner.
This product must be purchased directly by the City from In -Pipe Technology. There are no
agents or dealers authorized to resell this product in the State of Florida.
We are not aware of any similar or like product available to The City of Opa-locka
would serve the same purpose or function.
