Battery Materials Synthesis Equipment

Tender description

Battery Materials Synthesis Equipment - CPI has existing capabilities for synthesis of battery materials up to a scale of ~1 kg. With this tender CPI are seeking to expand the capability to produce 10 kg batches of active materials. CPI requires a series of equipment to facilitate the synthesis of battery active materials at a scale of approximately 10 kg per batch. A number of different unit operations will be required to be procured as part of this activity, which are outlined in the technical scope. Ideally CPI is looking for a single provider for all unit operations, effectively providing a ‘turn-key’ solution. This equipment will be installed in the Coxon building in Sedgefield. Please refer to the tender pack for further information relating to this requirement Lot 1: Lot 1 - Turnkey Solution Provider If practicable, CPI is seeking a single provider of all equipment as outlined within the ITT. This provider must be able to meet the technical specifications of the individual lots as outlined in the URB document. Lot 2.1-2.7: Lot 2 - Equipment Equipment Providers Lot 3: Lot 3 - Materials Transfer Technology As the facility will be handling toxic materials such as those containing nickel and cobalt compounds CPI would ideally like to procure equipment that will allow the safe transfer of the materials between unit operations. Ideally this should be integrated into equipment in other lots with ease and with minimal to no exposure of the operators to the toxic materials. Please refer to the ITT for further information Lot 4: Lot 4 - 1.10 Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System All unit operations are required to connect to a supervisory system/SCADA and central database (e.g. SQL) to extract both process parameters and sensor readings (where applicable), please refer to the ITT pack for further information relating to this requirement
