Standard Chemical Feed Systems
Standard Quicklime Feed System in a Box
Integrated Silo, Feed, and Dust Collection System in a Box
The standard quicklime feed system from STT is designed as a compact ”slaker-in-a box” system. This modular chemical feed system provides an integrated solution for receiving, storing, feeding, slaking and delivering up to 2,500 lb/h of quicklime from truck to the point of application. The three-piece modular design includes a 12 ft. storage silo with a bin vent filter, a ZMI Portec detention slaker module on the upper level, and a slurry storage tank module on the lower level under the lime silo.
This “plug-and-play” type system limits the amount of onsite work required reducing the construction time needed once the system arrives to your site. STT assembles, installs, pipes, wires, and integrates all components/equipment through an automated control panel at our facility prior to shipment. The two modular boxes are shipped pre-insulated and upright. The upper storage silo module is shipped separately for simple connection at site.

Features And Benefits
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Compact, “slaker-in-a box” system | Saves money and decreases equipment footprint enhancing plant utilization |
| Fully engineered and integrated silo, feed, and dust collection system | Receives, stores, feeds, slakes and delivers quicklime to application point optimizing material handling efficiency |
| Pre-assembled, piped, wired and factory tested | Reduces field installation costs and commissioning time ensuring a seamless start-up |
| Three-piece ‘plug-and-play’ design | Minimizes the amount of onsite assembly required saving on labor costs |
| 12’ square (box) footprint | Requires no escort or pilot car to transport and has 25% more space than a conventional 12’ silo design optimizing equipment footprint |
| Single-piece welded silo construction (12’-0” in diameter) | Ships preassembled limiting the amount of onsite construction needed |
| Low-profile, top access, bin vent filter dust collector mounted on roof | Removes particles from the air minimizing dust emissions improving air quality and employee safety |
| Skirted interior lighting, ventilation, heating and insulation | Use in cold temperature regions provides flexibility in using similar systems across multiple locations |
| Complete automatic control system with PLC | Improves productivity limiting downtime adding value to the bottom line |
| ZMI Portec Detention Slaker | Produces a highly reactive lime slurry maximizing lime usage. |
| Lower equipment modules shipped up-right | Reduces the chance for damage during shipment allowing for faster installation and start-up |
