Cyclone separators are used to remove liquid particles from a gas stream, normally before the gas send to a compressor. They are the same or similar to the scrubber provided at the inlet of a compressor. The inlet gas stream is allowed to enter the separator at a tangential direction. In some cases a … Read more
MECHANISM OF SMALL PARTICLE SEPARATION Gravity Separation Centrifugal Force Separation Impingement separation Coalescence separation 5.1 GRAVITY SEPARATION Gravity settling is by far the most widely used mechanism of separation. This results primarily from the simplicity of the equipment necessary and the readily available force of gravity. Gravity separation depends upon the … Read more
