What the buyer is looking for

The procurement concerns the removal of sewage digestate from the storage tank of a biorefinery owned by a company operating in the Metsäsairila Oy area (Kiertotalouskatu 18, 50800 Mikkeli). To collect the digestate, a suction vehicle that meets the Euro VI emission criteria is required. A free-form file must be uploaded in the tender document showing the basic information on the equipment used to provide the service (mark, vm, Euro classification, tank volume, number of axles, emissions). The digestate is an organic soil improver that meets the requirements set for it by the Finnish Food Authority for fertiliser use. The digestate has not been separated and has a dry matter content of approximately 11.5%. The production of the digestate is continuous and is approximately 3,800-5,500 tonnes per year. The most recent product fiche compiled from end-2025 samples has been added as an…

… attachment to this information request. There is no more recent product fiche, as the reactor has been out of production during the summer due to maintenance activities. The digestate is continuously generated, so it is collected on a continuous basis. The digestate is removed from the order for which the service provider has 1 week to collect the product from the storage tank. The storage tank, with a capacity of approximately 750 t of digestate, is emptied in one go or operated in another commonly agreed manner. All costs related to the call for tenders and the collection of digestate must be met by the service provider. Responsibility for the product and its management is transferred to the service provider when it is transferred from the storage tank to the suction vehicle. The service must be provided as soon as the contract period begins.
