Hydrocyclones - 1

HYDROCYCLONE SYSTEMS DRAMATICALLY LOWER YOUR OPERATING & DISPOSAL COSTS W WECO® Hydrocyclone Systems provide an economical and effective method for removing solid particles in the 4 to 100+ micron range from various slurries. Hydrocyclones typically make finer separations than are practical with screening separators and at significantly higher capacities. In many applications cyclones can be used in place of decanting centrifuges, providing the desired result at lower cost. Hydrocyclones are supplied in either an open-manifold or a Packed-Vessel configuration. Manifolds (radial or linear orientation) utilize 2-, 4-, 5-, or 10-inch diameter cyclones while Packed Vessels contain either 1- or 2-inch diameter cyclones. Both configurations can process feed rates from 10 to 3,000 gallons per minute, depending on the size and number of hydrocyclones installed in the system. The use of SWECO Hydrocyclones can lower the capital, operating, / >2 ,1 and maintenance costs of a solids-separation system. Installation is I straight-forward, as the hydrocyclone system is shipped assembled. \ Reliable operation of the system only requires a consistent feed at a \ steady pressure. The only moving parts are the feed pump and the slurry itself. Energy costs are much lower than those of a large ^*^lB .' - centrifuge and the maintenance, when needed, is much simpler and I For demanding applications, SWECO can provide a hydrocyclone j 'i-sB r^jfi*?* • system integrated with a SWECO Centrifuge, Rectangular Separator, \ - " or Round Separator. The hydrocyclone system will concentrate the \ solids, reducing the volume to be handled by the centrifuge or Wr' \ 1 screener. A smaller centrifuge or screener can then be selected at a I 1 L | considerable reduction in cost. d PACKED VESSEL SYSTEMS ARE AVAILABLE USING EITHER 1- OR 2-INCH CYCLONES SWECO HEADQUARTERS, P.O.

Other Separation Equipment Packed Vessel Specifications Manifold Specifications ' Capacities may vary dependent upon the application Inlet Feed A hydrocyclone has no moving parts and achieves solid/liquid separation by virtue of a pressure drop across the unit. A slurry is forced under pressure into the inlet section of the liner via a tangential inlet port. This, together with narrow cyclone diameter, causes the fluid to spin at high velocity which creates a high g radial acceleration field. The solid particles, being the denser phase, are forced outwards to the hydrocyclone inner wall....
