Exploitation of Down Flow Cyclone Separator Experiment and Its Industrial Application

A new down flow cyclone separator was developed for demisting from gas. It has the advantages of simple structure, higher effective separation, lower pressure drop. The pressure drop and demisting effect of the down flow cyclone demister were measuresd with air-water system.The results showed that the pressure increased with gas velocity and the amount of mist-hold of the outlet gas decreased slightly with gas velocity.Meanwhile,the optimum operation conditions were determined .The industrial scale-up based on the results was carried out and good effects were obtained. The new down flow cyclone separator can be applied widely as a new separator with higher efficiency.
