These conference proceedings aim to illustrate the ability of the hydrocyclone. Hydrocyclones demonstrate a wide appeal to engineers from all walks of life. A wide range of studies, results of research and industrial applications are explained and discussed in this volume. Advances in concepts, applications, and cost effectiveness of hydrocyclones are presented. In stand-alone or integrated with other separation devices, the basic advantages of robust compactness, no moving parts, ease of control, and versatility are being exploited more widely in a range of industries. The papers included in this volume describe applications of hydrocyclones in mineral processing, chemical engineering, the food industry, biotechnology, the oil and gas industry, heat engineering and other industries.
