Can a hydrocyclone be used as a liquid-solid-solid three-phase separator?
Thread Content
We are producing a chemical product; after the reaction, a three-phase system of liquid, solid, and solid is formed, with the liquid phase on top. Upon standing for 24 hours, the solid phases can be separated fairly well. The issue now is how to separate these three phases during continuous production – is it possible to basically separate them all in a single three-phase separator? Please share your opinions. Thank you!
It is necessary to know the density, particle size, and content of the two solids, as well as parameters such as the density and viscosity of the liquid phase. I have experience with the separation of light liquids from heavy liquids and solids, as well as with the four-phase separation of water, oil, slurry, and barite
It’s not good to keep working continuously, right?:lol
The general requirement is continuous operation
