The Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (oc-alc) Uses A Variety Of Dust Filtration And Collection Systems To Capture Hazardous Byproducts Of Thermal And Plasma Spray Processes Including Very Fine Metal And Non-metal Powders.  These Systems Typically Capture Dust Byproducts In 55-gallon Drums Below The Filtration System, Which Houses A Varying Number Of Filters.  legacy Systems Supporting Plasma Spray Processes Often Experience Unwanted Escapes Or Accidental Releases Of The Byproducts From The Filter Housing, Waste Drum Collar Seals And During Drum Change Outs, Which Have Necessitated A Need For Constant Cleaning Of Dust Byproducts In The Work Area. Additionally, Filter Change Outs Involve Extensive Ppe As Well As Tenting-off Of Production Areas Surrounding The Filtration System To Help Contain Dust As Filters Are Removed And Packaged For Proper Disposal.  As Such Oc-alc Is Seeking A Better Dust Filtration And Collection System That Minimizes Escapes And Accidental Releases To Avoid Constant Cleaning And Extraordinary Prevention Measures During Filter Changes. currently Oc-alc Has A Need For A Dust Filtration System That Has A Self-contained Filter Bank And Dust Collector To Enable More Facile Filter Changes And Powder Recovery That Do Not Require Extensive Ppe Or Tenting To Remove The Filtration System.  Ideally, Such A System Would Allow The User To Remove The Contained Filters And Collected Dust And Transport Them To A Separate Location (either Temporary Or Permanent) Where The Filters And Collected Dust Can Be Removed And Placed In Appropriate Waste Containers Without Unwanted Escapes Or Accidental Releases.  Alternatively, A System That Contains The Filters And Dust Collector Could Be Disposed Of In Its Entirety. Such Systems Should Minimize Escapes And Accidental Releases During Normal Operation And Filter And Dust Collector Change Out Over Legacy Dust Filtration And Collection Systems. the Contractor Shall Install New Dust Filtration And Collection Systems In Support Of Thermal And Plasma Spray Booths 14 And 17 Operated By The 76th Propulsion Maintenance Group.  Each New Dust Filtration And Collection System Must Have Self-contained Filter Banks And Dust Collectors To Enable More Facile Filter Changes And Powder Recovery As Outlined In Paragraph 1.1.  Each Thermal And Plasma Spray Booth Must Be Supported By Its Own Self-contained Dust Filtration And Collection System That Provides An Air Velocity Inside The Booth In Excess Of 300 Feet Per Minute At The Face Of The Booth Exhaust. must Possess The Expertise, Capabilities, And Experience To Meet Qualification Requirements For The Plasma Pollution Prevention Dust Filtration And Collection System Requirement. the Contractor Shall Provide All Hardware, Software, Accessories, Peripherals, Documentation, Training, Shipping, And Installation For The Plasma Pollution Prevention Dust Filtration And Collection System Iaw The Attached Sow.
