 The conventional solution is the use of hydrocyclones to concentrate the particulate load. The resulting concentrate is then filtered through bag or band filters and magnetic separators. Hydrocyclones produce a controlled eddy flow in the liquid and the resulting centrifugal force separates out the particles. As a result, these systems fall into the category of centrifugal separators.Three batteries of multi-cyclones like these, each of which consists of four multi-cyclones that are made of up nine individual cyclones, can reduce a total of 900 m3/h of process water initially to 60 m3/h of concentrate and then return the purified water directly to the body cleaning process.© Nägele Mechanik
