“…It is efficient and precise especially for coarse particles, while its energy consumption is nonnegligible. Air classification and hydraulic classification can be categorized as centrifugal classification which have similar principle that utilize the difference of settling velocity in the centrifugal force field (Cepuritis et al, 2015;Silventoinen et al, 2018;Tripathy et al, 2015;Laleh et al, 2017), usually used for gas-solid separation (Gu et al, 2016), gas-liquid separation (Lazrag et al, 2016), solid-liquid separation (Silva et al, 2015), and liquid-liquid separation (Motin and Bénard, 2017). Most centrifugal classification equipment, such as dust collector cyclone and hydrocyclone (Xie et al, 2018;Hwang and Chou, 2017), belong to cyclones which have advantages of simple mechanical structure, large producing capacity, easy manipulation demand and low running costs.…”
