Automated Solutions for Industry

Lime Slurry Preparation Plants

We develop fully automated plants for preparing lime slurry from hydrated lime (Ca(OH)₂) or quicklime (CaO), with processing capacities ranging from 1,000 kg/h up to 70,000 kg/h, depending on the lime type and project needs.

Lime Slurry Preparation Plants

Efficient and Automated Solutions for Quicklime or Hydrated Lime Slurry Preparation

At Promimex, in collaboration with TecProMin, we offer lime slurry preparation plants designed to meet the highest standards of efficiency, reliability, and automation in industrial and mining processes. These systems focus on the precise dosing, mixing, and control of quicklime (CaO) or hydrated lime (Ca(OH)₂), producing a homogeneous and stable slurry for applications in water treatment, metallurgical processes, and pH control.

Key Advantages of Our Lime Slurry Plants

  1. Modular and Scalable Design: Our plants are available in compact or large-scale configurations, tailored to the specific requirements of each project, whether for pilot plants, continuous operations, or remote facilities.
  2. Full Automation: They integrate automatic control systems using PLCs and HMI interfaces, allowing for safe operation, remote monitoring, real-time adjustments, and process traceability.
  3. High Mixing Efficiency: Our mixing and agitation technology ensures the production of a homogeneous slurry with high operational availability and low energy consumption.
  4. Precise Dosing: Screw feeders, bucket elevators, or rotary valves provide continuous and controlled dosing of the reagent.
  5. High-Resistance Materials: Constructed from carbon steel or stainless steel, our systems withstand the abrasiveness of lime and the most demanding environmental conditions.
