Mutoko District Hospital wants its 50kg-per-hour coal-fired healthcare waste incinerator refurbished, tested and recommissioned within 21 days. Bids close 15 October 2026 at 12:00 CAT.

Mutoko District Hospital is having its healthcare waste incinerator refurbished, tested and recommissioned, within 21 days on Regular Agency Fund. The unit is identified properly for once: a 50 kilogram per hour coal-fired healthcare waste incinerator. That tells a bidder the scale and the fuel. What is not given is the condition. There is no assessment of what has failed, no indication of whether refractory lining, the chimney, grates, doors or controls are in scope, and no emissions or performance standard the recommissioning must meet. Refurbishing an incinerator usually turns on the refractory, which is both the biggest cost and the thing least visible from a notice. Testing and recommissioning also imply a standard to be met, and none is cited.
