The Principle of Operation of Hydrocyclone is, in simple terms, the forces of gravity and centrifuge to separate large or heavy particles from smaller and lighter one. When sized correctly will “cut” like the ‘real cyclone’ below VS the imaginary ‘ideal’ one on the left.
A hydrocyclone (often referred to by the shortened form cyclone) is a device to classify, separate or sort particles in a liquid suspension based on the ratio of their centripetal force to fluid resistance.This ratio is high for dense (where separation by density is required) and coarse (where separation by size is required) particles, and low for light and fine particles.

Hydrocyclones can separate almost any type ofsolid particles. The price, setup, and operation ofhydrocyclones is low and simple, and maintenance is minimal. In addition, the size ofa hydrocyclone is small relative to other separation devices. The overall goal ofthis research program is to determine how to efficiently separate
modification of the conventional hydrocyclone (Barrozo et al., 1992). The conical section of a hydrocyclone ofBradley’s design was replaced by a conical filtering wall. The resulting equipment was denominated the filtering hydrocyclone. The hydrocyclone separates solid and liquid or liquid and liquid by the difference in density between
