A centrifugal clarifier based on the principles of a hydrocyclone with an impeller was developed for centrifugal clarification of sugarcane juice, for improvement in the quality of jaggery and khandsari. The developed clarifier and an existing standard sedimentation disc centrifuge were tested in regards of effect of operational parameters, namely, settling, boiling, clarificant addition and sa...

To enhance the separation efficiency of downhole oil–water hydrocyclones in co-produced wells, an axial center-piercing hydrocyclone structure is proposed. A mathematical relationship model between structural parameters and constructed based on response surface methodology. The numerical simulation method employed to analyze both unoptimized optimized structures, their performances are simulate...

Hydrocyclones are used as pre-filter to reduce suspended particles in irrigation water on the subsequent filters. The aim of study was determine separation efficiency (SE) hydrocyclones, called H1, H2 and H3 according inlet/outlet diameters, at velocities 1.0 (V10), 1.5 (V15) 2.0 (V20) ms-1, sands diameter 0.5 (D05), (D10), (D15), (D20) 2.5 (D25) mm. Therefore, a hydrocyclone laboratory test sy...

It is now possible to fit several tomographic systems to an industrial process. By the use of different modalities to image the process, the process engineer can plan to take advantage of the strongest features provided by each unit. Detailed information from different modalities might be gained by inspection of separate tomograms. To maximise the information available from the combined tomogra...
