EIMCO-K.C.P. Slakers and Slaker-Classifiers for lime are available in different sizes depending on the application and requirements. Slaker-Classifier combines the slaking action, classifying and grit removal in a single unit. The design provides adequate retention time for optimum slaking efficiency.

GREEN LIQUOR CLARIFIER

EIMCO-K.C.P. Green Liquor clarifier is designed to give better effluent clarification than the older multiple tray design at a lower installed cost. This unit can also be furnished with provisions for clarified Green Liquor Storage in same unit, thereby eliminating the extra tankage for green liquor storage capacity.

WHITE LIQUOR CLARIFIER

A unit of tray type is used for White Liquor Clarification. Since maximum underflow density & clear white Liquor are the primary objectives, the unit type clarifier has obvious advantages. The peripheral overflow launder will insure minimum turbidity in the clarified white liquor & storage of solids to insure maximum underflow density where space is at a premium, a two of four compartment white liquor can be used.

LIME MUD WASHER

The Under flow from the white liquor clarifier must be washed to recover NA 2O values in it. Two stages washing is usually employed in a washer type tray thickener.
