This work presents a study on a gas-solid cyclone separator used in a complex cement production plant.
The examples include, among others, an oil-water hydrocyclone, a gas-solid cyclone separator, a nonslagging vortex coal combustor, and a pulverized-coal furnace.
The pressure drop and collection efficiency are generally the most relevant parameters when evaluating the performance of gas-solid cyclone separators.
In this paper, an attempt is made to improve the gas-solid cyclone collection efficiency by applying a low strength magnetic field.
Swirling gas-particle/droplet flows are commonly encountered in various engineering equipments, such as gas-turbine combustors, gas-solid cyclone separators, cyclone combustors, hydro-cyclones and swirl burners/combustors in furnaces.
Loop-seal, considered heart of a circulating fluidized bed (CFB), returns solids captured by cyclone to the base of the riser while preventing direct flow of gas from high pressure riser to the low-pressure cyclone.
For combusting biomass in an EFGT-Cycle, two alternatives are possible: First, a special, well-designed combustor for solid biomass, with a cyclone to reduce particles in the exhaust gas.
Cyclones separate solid particles from gases, and hydrocyclones separate the particles from a liquid suspension or separate one liquid from another.
This paper investigates the feasibility of using electro-hydrodynamic forces to enhance the efficiency of solid-gas separation in cyclone separators.
This paper experimentally investigates the effect of adding tangential chambers on the efficiency of solid-gas separation in cyclone separators used in gas treatment.
This same idea, after allowing for the properties of strand conveying in the inlet duct, could also give a new reason for the generally observed increase in efficiency with solids loading, and other cyclone behaviour.
