Specifications include, but are not limited to: The City Palm Coast intents to purchase a Paste-Type, non-PLC based Lime Slaking System to replace one of the three existing slaking systems in operation at Water Treatment Plant #1 (WTP1). Demonstrated experience in design, fabrication and testing of paste-type lime slaking equipment of the size, materials and scope outlined herein, is one key point critical to supplier selection. The City of Palm Coast currently has lime slakers in operation from multiple manufacturers. During this process of writing the specifications for a new lime slaker, we took into account the Merrick (WTP 1 Slaker 3), Wallace and Tiernan (now Integrity) - WTP 1 Slaker 1 and 2, and the EnproIPM slakers (WTP 2). Based on our experience and history, the specifications were written to meet this facility’s needs to properly and consistently treat the source water within our operating parameters.
