  2. Hydrocyclone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocyclone

    A hydrocyclone comprises a cylindrical shaped feed part with tangential feed; an overflow part with vortex finder; a conical part with an apex. A cyclone has no moving parts. Working principle

  3. Cyclonic separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclonic_separation

    A high-speed rotating (air)flow is established within a cylindrical or conical container called a cyclone. Air flows in a helical pattern, beginning at the top (wide end) of the cyclone and ending at the bottom (narrow) end before exiting the cyclone in a straight stream through the center of the cyclone and out the top.

  4. Oil–water separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil–water_separator

    Oil removal hydrocyclones, or de-oiling hydrocyclones, are very different in geometry, design and operation compared to the more common solid removal hydrocyclones. When correctly designed and operated oil removal Hydrocyclones are very useful for removing both large oil droplets and smaller emulsified oil droplets in a broad range of ...

  5. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

    Separators work on the principle that the three components have different densities, which allows them to stratify when moving slowly with gas on top, water on the bottom and oil in the middle. Any solids such as sand will also settle in the bottom of the separator.

  6. Hydrodynamic separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrodynamic_separator

    Installation of a hydrodynamic separator along an Arizona highway. In civil engineering (specifically hydraulic engineering), a hydrodynamic separator (HDS), also called a swirl separator, is a stormwater management device that uses cyclonic separation to control water pollution.

  7. Corn wet-milling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corn_wet-milling

    The water from each stage is recycled to the previous hydrocyclones to ensure the maximum amount of starch is separated. A very high purity of starch (>99.5% db) can be recovered by wet-milling. Purity is important when the end product is high- fructose corn syrup or starch to be modified (using chemicals or enzymes) but it is not important ...

  8. Mechanical screening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_screening

    Mechanical screening, often just called screening, is the practice of taking granulated or crushed ore material and separating it into multiple grades by particle size.. This practice occurs in a variety of industries such as mining and mineral processing, agriculture, pharmaceutical, food, plastics, and recycling.

  9. Peeler centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peeler_centrifuge

    [1] Peeler centrifuge operates on the principle of centrifugal force to separate solids from liquids by density difference. And high rotation speed provides high centrifugal force that allows the suspended solid in feed to settle on the inner surface of drum, also washing and washing processes at the same rotational speed and in same centrifuge vessel.
