What is a hydrocyclone used for and how does it work?

A hydrocyclone consists of a cylindrical top with an offset feed inlet pipe, an overflow outlet on top and tapered cone(s) leading down to a small outlet on the bottom. Other parts include external casings that contain the internal pressure and are clamped or bolted together, and internal replaceable liners for wear resistance.

Hydrocyclone

A hydrocyclone can handle very high slurry throughput rates, and often an entire battery of hydrocyclones can be found at a mineral processing facility. The advantage of fast processing by a hydrocyclone is somewhat offset by the associated high impingement wear rate of the hydrocyclone internal surface lining by the fast-moving abrasive slurries.
