The white Hquor is separated from the calcium carbonate by decantation in a clarifier and is then available for a new cooking cycle. The underflow from the clarifier, which contains the calcium carbonate and is referred to as lime mud, is diluted with water and passed to a second clarifier known as the lime mud washer. The clarified weak white Hquor (weak wash) goes to storage and then enters the dissolving tank. The lime mud residue from the lime mud washer is passed to a rotary filter and subsequently to the lime kiln where calcium carbonate is converted back to calcium oxide, thus completing the lime cycle.

Washing. Beets are transferred from storage to the factory in water flumes. These flumes lead directly into a rock-catcher, which allows rocks to settle out, and then on into a trash-catcher and a rotary washer. A large amount of soil usually is entrained with the beet roots, and processes for recovering and returning the soil to the field are in use.

Rubber closures for vials or other containers being filled aseptically on an industrial scale are nonporous but share some of the problems of porous loads. They are most frequently steam sterilized by passage through double-ended rotary washer autoclaves, which by agitation of the product ensure effective steam penetration to even the potentially occluded parts of the closures. Steam comes into direct contact with these bulk items they are not usually wrapped nor packed into hermetically sealed containers. Special precautions must be taken for unloading to avoid compromising their sterility. Static autoclaves may also be used for prew ashed versions of these types of components. They should then be loaded into the autoclave in shallow layers in perforated trays or boxes.

Aromatic polyimides have been the subject of much attention as a material for use in the electronics and other leading-edge industries. Films are used in flexible printed circuit boards, as wire and cable wrap, motor-slot liners, transformers and capacitors. Molded parts are used in applications requiring resistance to thermally harsh environments such as automotive transmission parts, thermal and electrical insulators, valve seats, rotary seal rings, thrust washers and discs, bushings.
