The Recycled and Biobased Business Ecosystem Platform project at Tampere University of Applied Sciences in Tampere, Finland is building up a testing environment for biodegradation of recycled biobased materials. For those purposes, we invite tenders for a fully automated multichannel respirometer to study biodegradation according to relevant ISO standards. For future studies, the ability to connect the respirometer to downstream applications such as HPLC equipment or bioreactor is also required. Respirometer is to be used for research, commercial testing service and educational purposes.The respirometer is to meet the following requirements: a gas (O2, CO2, CH4) detection system based on NDIR technology, individual mass flow controllers for each vessel, an automated leak detection with indication, an adjustable thermostatic chamber, an automated real-time data collection and analysis, manuals and software in English, and a CE certification.The respirometer must include all the modules needed to set up the environment for biodegradation measurements and analysis, including e.g. thermostatic chambers, gas sensors, air pumps, flow controllers, magnetic stirrers, vessels, connectors, gaskets, valves, tubes and process control software. Requirements for a computer need to be defined, however, a computer should be excluded from the tender. Within this call tenderers are instructed to give a tender for a respirometer package including 10 to 12 reactors for aerobic soil and compost in...
