Liquid–liquid systems play an important role in several industrial processes. Their
separation efficiency determines the product purity and yield to a great extent. In recent …

Microplastics, particularly those in the 5–20 µm range, pose substantial risks in aquatic
environments, yet effective removal techniques are limited. This study assesses two critical …

Sand production often occurs in offshore heavy oil production. Sand particles enter offshore
platform processing systems with heavy oil, easily causing pipeline sand deposition, valve …

Efficient oil–water separation is difficult to achieve through a single process in oil
exploitation and waste oil recycling. Therefore, a demulsification and dewatering device …

A novel hydrocyclone with guide vanes, named as axial hydrocyclone (AHC), is designed to
tackle the problem of oil–water separation faced by most mature oilfields. Optimal design of …

The inlet section of hydrocyclone has a significant effect on separation efficiency. However,
in most existing studies the inlet of conventional hydrocyclones (CH) only serves as a …

Centrifugal technology for two-phase flow separation is widely used in industrial fields.
However, the liquid-liquid separation is more difficult than solid-liquid and gas-liquid …

The wall profile of the swirl chamber greatly impacts the internal flow structures and
separation efficiency of a liquid–liquid separation hydrocyclone. The objective of this study is …

Gas–liquid separation is widely used in various fields. And the centrifugal separator has
been witnessed as a worldwide popularity owing to its small size and high efficiency …

In order to ease the pressure on oil price, the downhole oil–water separation system has
been adopted to preseparate the output production. However, both the gravity separator and …
