(PDF) Hydrocyclones: a solution to produced water treatment …

Hydrocyclone is used to separate particles from produced water. It can be used in different industries, including oil and gas, water treatment and pharmaceutical (among others). The hydrocyclone can effectively separate particles larger than 10μm, but the efficiency is greatly reduced when the particle size is less than 10μm.

The Science and Technology of Hydrocyclones

As the swirl velocity increases, the hydrocyclone generates higher centripetal forces and the efficiency of the unit increases. Because gravity has a negligible effect on the centripetal forces, the equipment does not need to be installed vertically. The oil and water separation performance depends on cyclone geometry, pressure …
