GAC Regeneration Service vs On-Site Equipment
Compare sending spent carbon for review with installing regeneration equipment. Define logistics, utilities, acceptance and operating scope before RFQ.

Compare a spent-carbon regeneration service inquiry with a separate inquiry for on-site regeneration equipment. GBL's published regeneration page describes condition review and service support as well as equipment routes. Define the carbon stream and requested commercial scope before asking which route can be assessed for the project.
What distinguishes a regeneration-service RFQ from an on-site equipment RFQ?
For a service inquiry, describe the spent carbon, use history and requested collection, processing and return scope. For equipment, describe the site, feed material, utilities and operating responsibilities. Request assessment criteria and post-treatment evidence in the written proposal; a published route still requires condition review.
What identifies a spent stream for initial review?
Identify the carbon form and substances it has contacted.
Does an equipment listing guarantee project capacity?
Request a proposal for the actual feed, site and duty, and retain its stated design basis.
