- Description
- The MOX Fuel Fabrication Facility (MFFF) will produce completed Mixed Oxide (MOX) fuel assemblies for use in domestic, commercial nuclear power reactors. Feed material is uranium dioxide and surplus plutonium dioxide. The manufacturing area is the MOX Fuel Fabrication Building (BMF). It is a multi-functional complex containing all of the plutonium handling, fuel processing, and fuel fabrication operations of the MFFF. This building includes the Aqueous Polishing Area (BAP), the MOX Processing Area (BMP), the Shipping and Receiving Area (BSR), and the Laboratory Area. The BMF is a multi-story hardened reinforced concrete structure enclosing approximately 441,000 sq ft The MFFF design for the United States will be licensed by the NRC, ensuring compliance with the most stringent design standards. The NRC's regulations are found in Chapter I of Title 10, "Energy," of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). 10 CFR 50 - Appendix B: Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants, will be applicable to this procurement. This EOI is seeking subcontractors to complete the installation of multiple HVAC systems. Proposals will be solicited for a single subcontractor for this installation work. Statement of Work MOX Services has procured Engineered HVAC equipment for the successful bidder to install. This equipment includes: • HD Exhaust Fans • VHD Exhaust Fans • PO Exhaust Fans • MD Exhaust Fans • HEPA Filter Unit • Tornado Dampers at intake and exhaust • Fire Dampers • Isolation Dampers • Backdraft Dampers • Supply, Return, & Exhaust Fans • Air Handling Units • Air Filtration Units • HEPA Intermediate Filter Unit • Process Cell Dehumidification System • HEPA & ASHRAE filters • Recirculating Fan/Cooling Coil package units • Electric air pre-heating coil • Chilled water cooling coils • Isolation valves • Seismic and Non-Seismic ductwork, carbon steel, galvanized steel, and stainless steel • Seismic and Non-Seismic ductwork supports, carbon steel, and stainless steel • Duct insulation • Grills • Instrumentation locally mounted at the ductwork (instrumentation and tubing at instrument racks will be installed by others) The contractor will include the fabrication and supply of new duct resulting from any future changes and modifications. The subcontract will be QL-4 to work under the MOX QA Program so the installer having a NQA-1 Program is not required. Offerors should be able to document at least three (3) years specializing in this type of HVAC installation in a large complex nuclear environment. Offerors should be able to document that they are familar with the SMACNA, ERDA, AISC, IEEE, ANSI, ASME, ASTM, AWS, NCIG, ASNT, and NRC codes, standards, and references used in HVAC installations in nuclear facilities. The balance of the HVAC Installation project is estimated to be approximately $80 to 90 million. The Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Systems are designed to provide and maintain the required indoor design conditions for the facilities during normal, upset and accident conditions. The HVAC design utilizes the requirements and guidance from federal and trade guidelines, codes, and standards. The HVAC systems for the BMF prevent the spread of contamination in the facility and provide the required operating environment and minimize the release of contamination to the atmosphere. The design incorporates various static and confinement barriers to accomplish these goals. The HVAC and dynamic confinement systems provide the BMF with highly reliable controlled air environments to suit many variable and diverse requirements. The HVAC and dynamic confinement systems are vital for orderly and safe facilities operations. The filtration systems provide HEPA filtration to prevent airborne contaminants from spreading to indoor clean areas or to the environment. The systems provide controlled air temperature and pressure to keep facility areas within design conditions, and to keep contaminants within special confining areas. The objective is to prevent the spread of contamination in the facility, to provide the required operating environment, and to minimize the release of contamination to the atmosphere. Very High Depressurization Exhaust System The Very High Depressurization (VHD) Exhaust System, maintains a negative pressure differential between the C4 (glovebox) and C3 (process room) confinement zones, filters contaminants from glovebox exhaust gases/air prior to discharge through the exhaust stack and maintain an environment suitable for the manufacturing process. The VHD exhaust system provides HVAC flow required to remove excess heat generated by processes, maintains inert or special atmospheres required by the processes, and provides confinement airflow through postulated breaches. The VHD exhaust system also controls the effects of system pressure transients on glovebox confinement boundary integrity to maintain pressure inside the glovebox suitable for working in gloves and to prevent overpressurization (positive and negative) of the glovebox. The glovebox atmosphere is exhausted through two stages of HEPA filters at the Glovebox boundary, one stage of HEPA filters at the C3 boundary and two stages of final HEPA filters prior to being discharged to the atmosphere. The VHD system consists of four 100% capacity exhaust fans and two stages of final HEPA filtration. There are two 100% redundant filter trains. High Depressurization Exhaust System The High Depressurization Exhaust (HDE) System maintains a negative pressure differential between the C3 (process room) confinement zone and the C2 confinement zone. The HDE system ventilates the 3013 can storage area in the C2 confinement zone, the emergency power supply rooms serving the VHD Exhaust System fans, the Process Cell Exhaust System fans and the HDE system fans in the C2 confinement zone. The HDE system filters contaminants from the exhausted air prior to discharge through the BMF building exhaust stack and maintains an environment suitable for operating personnel. The HDE system consists of two 100% capacity exhaust fans and two stages of HEPA filtration. There are two 100% redundant filter trains. Process Cell Exhaust System The Process Cell Exhaust (POE) System maintains a negative pressure differential between the process cell confinement zone and the C2 confinement zone filters contaminants from process cell exhaust air prior to discharge through the exhaust stack and maintains an environment suitable for the manufacturing process. The system exhausts air from the process cells in the AP Area; rooms that are not normally accessible and contain welded process equipment. Air is supplied near the ceiling and removed near the floor (above the level of potential liquid spills). The POE system consists of two 100% capacity exhaust fans and at least two stages of HEPA filtration. There are two 100% redundant filter trains each with one of the two fans. Medium Depressurization Exhaust System The Medium Depressurization Exhaust (MDE) System maintains a negative pressure differential between the C2 confinement zone and C1 confine zones, filters contaminants from the exhaust air prior to discharge through the exhaust stack, maintains an environment suitable for operating personnel and provides a common exhaust stack for discharge of process vents and ventilation exhaust. Airflow can be measured in the exhaust ducts. The operating sequence that would bring the spare components into service and transfer to alternate power sources can also be tested. The Exhaust MDE system consists of two 100% capacity exhaust fans and at least two stages of HEPA filtration. Summary of Air Flows • VHD System: 5000 CFM*, 276 gloveboxes and 64 flow circuits. • HDE System: 92,200 CFM*, 194 rooms and 14 flow circuits (i.e., intermediate filters). Largest room 5,200 CFM* • POE System: 9,100 CFM*, 22 Process Cells and no intermediate filters. Largest room 2,400 CFM* • MDE System: 94,100 CFM*, 291 rooms and no intermediate filters.
