Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

Results are presented for an investigation of hydrocyclones employed for the separation of suspensions with a spherical and non-isometric (fibrous) solid phase of various concentrations in the initial suspension. Optimal production regimes for the separation, which provide for reliable operation of the hydrocyclones, and which take into account crisis phenomena, are ascertained.
