 | Hydrocyclone
is the most attractive device for removing solid particles from liquid . It utilises
the centrifugal force to effect the separation. The separation of solid from liquid
depends on the particle size and particle density. Centrifugal force throws the
particles out against the wall and they subsequently drop into the outlet hopper,as
shown in the Figure. Cyclone consists of vertical cylinder with conical bottom.
The inlet point is near the top of the cylindrical portion. The particles separated
are collected at the bottom. Hydrocyclone can be used to collect the particles
in the range of 5 to 20 micron.
Hydrocyclone is cost effective because
of simplicity in fabrication, requires minimum or no maintenance as there are
no moving parts. The success of hydrocyclone is in its design. MAMKO with their
thorough knowledge of physical technology have a unique method of designing the
cyclone dimensions. The design procedure takes into account particle density,
size, shape and also Rheology of the slurry. |
 Hydrocyclone
is equally useful to separate heavy liquid from an emulsion
(not the highly stable type).
Hydrocyclone have tremendous utility in the process industry.
They can form an important part of a loop in :
- Multiphase Reactor System.
- Fluidised Solid/Liquid Contactor/Reactor System.
- Liquid/Liquid Extraction System.
On their own they are excellent tools to reduce load on
expensive filters and deemulsification devices. This solid
liquid separator reduce filter maintenance and also increase
filter changeover time.

They are extremely useful in providing
protection and increasing efficiency of Spray Nozzles, Heat Exchanger and Pump
Seals.
Thus their applications are plenty in all type of process industry
as well as in effluent treatment. Mamko make them available in Carbon Steel, Stainless
Steel, Alloy Steels and Titanium.The range of flow rates may be 1 KL/hr to 3000
KL/hr.
