As the global oil market continues to tighten, there is an increasing focus on enhancing oil
recovery. However, enhanced oil recovery technologies require the addition of chemical …

Crystallization Process Systems gives a clear, concise, balanced and up to date
presentation of crystallization and solid-liquid separation of the crystalline product. The …

A mathematical model of the hydrocyclone, based on the physics of fluid flow, has been
developed. The model equations are solved in a computer code that takes as input the …

One of the keys of cleaner production in the petrochemical industry is the reduction and
recycling of spent catalysts. The centrifugal force generated by the high-speed self-rotation …

The flow behavior in hydrocyclone is quite complex. This complexity of flow processes has
led designers to rely on empirical equations for predicting the equipment performance. The …

In this paper, the numerical modelling of the fluid flow and the particle dynamics in small
sampling cyclones is addressed. The presence of the particles is assumed not to affect the …

In a number of publications we have proposed a mathematical model of the hydrocyclone
based on the physics of fluid flow. The aim of this investigation is to examine the stability of …

Porous particles containing organic waste, such as residue hydrogenation waste catalysts
and oily sludge, are important hazardous pollutants. In 2017, self-rotation and revolution of …

This paper presents a study of gas-solid flow in a novel cyclone separator with inner
cylinder, compared with that in a conventional cyclone. The Reynolds stress model (RSM) is …

Axial velocity fluctuation zone (AVFZ) is a transition region between primary vortices in
hydrocyclones that may influence the separation process, but its flow pattern and functions …
