A hydrocyclone is most often used to separate "heavies" from a liquid mixture originating at a centrifugal pump or some other continuous source of pressurized liquid. A hydrocyclone is most likely to be the right choice for processes where "lights" are the greater part of the mixture and where the "heavies" settle fairly easily.

Hydrocyclone is a continuously device that utilizes centrifugal force to accelerate the settling rate of particles. It is one of the most important devices in the minerals industry, its main use in mineral processing being as a classifier, which has proved extremely efficient at fine separation size. Without motion and power unit, it needs to match with relevant slurry pump.

How does it work?

As a common separating and classifying equipment, hydrocyclone works on the principle of centrifugal settlement. The centrifugal settling of solid Particies in hydro - cyclone is a complicated behaviour about twn Phase fluid. When the mixture of two phases (or three phases) to be separated enters the hydrocyclone at a certain pressure from the tangent direction (or involute) of the feed line, A strong three-dimensional elliptical strongly rotating shear swirl flow is generated. Due to the difference in particle size (or density) between coarse particle (or heavy phase) and fine particle (or light term), most coarse particles (or heavy phase) rotate to the bottom under the action of centrifugal force, centripetal force, buoyancy, fluid resistance, etc. Discharge as sand from a sand sink. Fine particles (light phase) flow upward in the center of the inner spiral ore, which is discharged from the overflow pipe as overflow.

Application of Hydrocyclone

Hydrocyclone is widely used in industry, nonmetallic ore, high territory, mineral dressing, petroleum, chemical industry, coal washing plant, paper making, sewage treatment and other industries.

Hydrocyclones also find application in the separation of liquids of different densities.

v In pulp and paper mills to remove sand, staples, plastic particles and other contaminants.

v In the drilling industry to separate sand from the expensive clay that is used for lubrication during the drilling.

v In metal working to separate metal particles from cooling liquid.

v In mineral processing, hydrocyclones are used extensively both to classify particles for recirculation in grinding circuits and to differentiate between the economic mineral and gangue.

v To remove sand and silt particles from irrigation water for drip irrigation purposes.
