LibertyCES has documented Butterfly Valve in Salts/Brines service, including Trona Slurry, Sodium Carbonate and Recausticizing liquor. Wetted materials to confirm: Metal/graphite seat. Documented models include Crane CPE Type 800/800ISO. Compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature and duty cycle, so confirm with a free spec review.
Notes from the vendor documentation
Trona/soda-ash slurry and recausticizing explicitly named among Type 800 applications (pulp & paper, mining).

Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Special Purpose Butterfly Valve named media | Trona Slurry and Sodium Carbonate/Carbonic Acid explicitly named in the chemistry-specific application list | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX High Performance Butterfly Valves |
| Type 800 named process | Recausticizing named among Type 800's process list, alongside various chemicals, hot gases, chlorine gas, methanol, sewage | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX High Performance Butterfly Valves |
Recausticizing liquor and trona slurry are both abrasive, alkaline slurries, not clear brine — naming them separately from Type 800's general 'various chemicals' process line is Crane's own signal that a slurry butterfly valve is a distinct spec from a clear-brine one, even within the same product family.
Every material and product claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Chemical compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature, and duty cycle — confirm current specifications with the manufacturer and request a spec review before final specification.
