Series A-758 Paste-Type Lime Slaker

Series A-758 Paste-Type Lime Slaker

Wallace & Tiernan® Series A-758 Paste-Type Lime Slaker produces a high strength lime slurry from dry quicklime at a substantial savings. On-site slaking is the ideal solution to commercial hydrated lime which becomes prohibitive for installations requiring a continuous, high volume supply.

Lime Slaker

A-758 Lime Slaker With 32-300 Volumetric Screw Feeder.

The A-758 lime-slaking system uses a controlled paste-slaking technique. The system is completely automatic from quicklime input to lime-slurry discharge.

The heart of the slaking process is a torque-operated water valve which automatically maintains paste consistency of the lime being slaked. Typical applications are:

Scale and corrosion control and acid neutralization
Coagulation
Water softening in the water treatment market
Sludge conditioning
Phosphate removal in the wastewater treatment market
SO₂ removal from flue gas in the air quality control market
