Hydrocyclones are used for sewage sludge degritting in applications requiring high efficiency and a high degree of grit removal. ... [In] the hydrocyclone ... the feed is introduced tangentially to a cylindrical feed section, and the liquid slurry develops a rotational movement and passes into a conical section. The centrifugal force created by the cyclonic movement of the liquid forces the heavier solid particles to the outer wall. 3, record 2, English, - hydrocyclone

The terms "cyclone separator", "cyclone collector" and "cyclone" are often used as synonyms of "hydrocyclone". They are however generic with respect to "hydrocyclone" because whereas in hydrocyclones the solids are separated from a liquid, in the others the solids are separated from either a liquid or air mixture. 4, record 2, English, - hydrocyclone
