Solid/Liquid Hydrocyclone

The solid/liquid hydrocyclone is a cyclone clarifier that offers continuous solids removal from liquid. It is used in industrial process water, industrial reuse, oil/water separation and clarification/separation applications.

The solid/liquid hydrocyclone offers effective solids removal in a compact package. It can handle high levels of solids, with removal capabilities down to five micron.

Solid/liquid hydrocyclones are ideal for treating oily process water and oil-field produced water, desanding of injection water and for sand jetting systems applications.

Features and Benefits

Typically less than one-tenth the size and weight of a media filter or inclined plate separator, and one one-hundredth the size of a conventional clarifier for the same capacity
Compact size means increased flexibility and lower installation cost in some plants
No backwash pumps and tanks are needed, further minimizing installation space requirements
No moving parts, level controls or complex control systems, resulting in simple operation and minimal maintenance
Modular construction for simple expansion
