Usage and Working principle?

A hydrocyclone is a simple cone-shaped cylindrical container that has no moving parts. It is used to separate or “cut” solid particles in a liquid stream by size and density.

A hydrocyclone is a high-throughput gravity separation device used for separating slurry particles based on particle weight. For example, particles of similar size but different specific gravity, or particles of different size but identical specific gravity.

Working principle

Product is fed into the hydrocyclone tangentially under a certain pressure. This creates a centrifugal movement, pushing the heavier phase outward and downward alongside the wall of the conical part. The decreasing diameter in the conical part increases the speed and so enhances the separation.
