Multicyclones HC 130/230/330/400
NIVOBA developed a series of multi-cyclones for concentration and washing of starch.

 

Process description

A hydrocyclone consists of a cylindrical upper part provided with an inlet and an overflow and a conical shaped house with an underflow-drain. Slurry is pumped tangentially into the cyclone. Centrifugal action forces the heavier solids outward against the cyclone wall and subsequentley downward through the drain. Lighter particles and most of the fluid are discharged through the overflow.

Design

NIVOBA multi-cycloneblocks consist of synthetic blocks with integrated hydrocyclones (10 or 15 mm). Each cyclone is fitted with an overflow nipple or a plug. The block is mounted in a stainless steel housing with bolted or hinged cover. The housing is provided with feed-, overflow- and drain connections. The capacity per block is easily adaptable by adjusting the number of plugs or nipples.
