System and method for the fractionation of suspended solids by means of hydrocyclones

摘要

A method and apparatus for fractionation with hydrocyclones for providing the relative sharp separation between separate meshes being divided, by cumulating a slurry-fill as a regulative bulk measured variable below a lower reject nozzle, and adjusting the clearance between the surface of the slurry-fill and the lower edge of an overflow adjusted to a predetermined length which is reversely proportional to a desired separation mesh by means for changing or retaining constant the fill level of the slurry fill.
