A liquid--liquid separating hydrocyclone that utilizes gradual taper angles to reduce energy loss, helical precession, and velocity differentials and, thereby, increase the efficiency and capacity of the hydrocyclone. A separation portion of the hydrocyclone tapers to the underflow outlet orifice and no cylindrical portion is used at the underflow end.CFD is a useful method for simulating fluid flow patterns in conduits or separation modules. It has also been frequently employed in hydrocyclone research. Cullivan et al., 2003, Cullivan et al., 2004 used a common CFD software, FLUENT, to simulate the fluid velocity, pressure distributions and particle trajectories in hydrocyclones.

A method and related apparatus are disclosed herein for controlling the quantity of oil as a contaminant being discharged with water from a hydrocyclone. The hydrocyclone comprises a conical body with an upper liquid mixture inlet, a drive fluid inlet, an overflow outlet for the separated oil and drive fluid, and an underflow outlet for the separated water.In this study, we tried to develop the hydrocyclone as an alternative method for separation of biomass from fermentation culture, an attractive replacement for centrifugation processes. The advantages of using hydrocyclone in biomass separation could be summarized in its suitability for continuous separation and its low risk of contamination.
