Introduction

In mineral processes, the separation of solid particles from liquid is one of the sensitive steps that determine the efficiency of the entire production line. Among all separation equipment, hydrocyclone is known as one of the most widely used and economical tools.

Hydrocyclones, without any moving parts, can provide effective and continuous separation using only centrifugal force; And this simplicity has made them one of the most important components of mineral processing circuits.

In the Talayehdaran collection of Zarineh industry equipment, design, engineering, and production of all types of polyurethane hydrocyclone, jacket, rubberline, and all polyurethane are carried out by relying on Iranian technical knowledge and field experience in real projects. Our goal is to provide a product with global quality, high durability and fast domestic service.

How does a hydrocyclone work?

The basis of hydrocyclone work is based on the rotating flow of slurry. When the slurry is forced into the conical chamber of the device, it rotates spirally under the influence of the angular design of the inlet.

In this case, the created centrifugal force causes the heavier particles to move towards the wall and down and be discharged from the lower outlet (underflow), while smaller and lighter particles are removed from the upper part (overflow) along with the central flow.

In this way, the hydrocyclone, as a continuous system without a mechanical filter, performs classification, thickening or separation of fine and coarse particles.

Engineering design and its effect on separation efficiency

The performance of a hydrocyclone is directly related to its geometric design. The angle of the cone, the diameter of the body, the size of the apex and the vortex, all play a vital role in determining the flow rate, pressure and cut size.

In Zarrineh, the geometric design of hydrocyclones is done based on field experience in copper, iron, gold, lead and zinc, nepheline syenite, silica, coal, sand, etc. factories. Before production, each project is reviewed and modeled by the technical team to optimize the main parameters such as solid percentage, slurry viscosity, inlet pressure and flow rate.

In fact, we consider the hydrocyclone not just as a piece of equipment, but as a part of the processing circuit, which must be fully compatible with the other components of the line in terms of capacity and separation purpose.

The main components of hydrocyclone and the role of each part

A standard hydrocyclone consists of the following components:

Inlet: The angular design of the inlet creates a vortex movement in the slurry.

Body: It is usually made of steel, iron or polyurethane and covers the main part of the flow.

Liner: The wearing part of the device that has the most contact with the slurry. Choosing the right liner material directly affects the useful life of the equipment.

Vortex (Vortex Finder): the exit path of light flow and smaller particles.

Spigot (APEX): the discharge path of larger and heavier particles.

In the products of Talayehdaran Tahiz Sanat Zarrineh, all these components are designed with high precision and produced using precise engineering molds to achieve the highest accuracy in dimensions and compatibility between components.

Types of hydrocyclone based on the type of liner

1. Hydrocyclone with polyurethane liner

Polyurethane liner is one of the most popular choices in the mining industry due to its high resistance to wear, elasticity and shock absorption.

This type of liner has excellent performance against slurry with sharp and abrasive particles. Long life, light weight and resistance to corrosion are its key features.

In Zarrineh, polyurethane liners are produced with different degrees of hardness (from Shore 70 to Shore 95) to be selected according to the type of material and working conditions.

2. Jacket hydrocyclone

In this design, the liners are installed inside the body as separate parts. This structure allows quick and easy replacement, reducing production line stoppages and saving repair costs.

Zarrine produces a jacket liner for 15 and 20 inch hydrocyclones and EWO Wash models completely natively. Its important advantage is that there is no need to send the metal body for re-lining, just replace the new liner.

3. Rubberline hydrocyclone

Rubber liner is a suitable option for environments with medium wear and need to absorb shock. In addition to being resistant to wear, natural rubber also absorbs mechanical shock and vibrations well.

Using strong industrial adhesives and precise baking operations, Zarrine guarantees the excellent adhesion of the liner to the body.

4. Full polyurethane hydrocyclone

In some applications, the entire body is made of polyurethane. This model is lighter, rust-proof and corrosion-resistant, and is an ideal option for wet environments and lines that need to be moved easily.

Comparing the performance of different liners

This table shows that for most mining applications in Iran, polyurethane liner has the best balance between durability, price and performance.

Testing and quality control in Zarrineh

The quality control is carried out precisely from the design stage to the final production in the Zarrineh Sanat Zarineh Talayehdaran collection.

* Molds are machined with precision machines.

* The composition of polyurethane materials is prepared with a specific and controlled formulation.

* Abrasion and pressure tests are performed at the request of the employer.

* Before sending to the customer, the assembly and conformity of the parts are checked in the factory.

These processes ensure that each hydrocyclone is delivered to the customer with consistent performance, high durability and minimal service requirements.

Localization and the pride of domestic production

Zarrineh's goldsmiths have succeeded in completely localizing the design and manufacturing of industrial hydrocyclones by using Iranian engineers. From the 3D design stage to mold production, polyurethane curing and final testing, all processes are done inside the country. We believe that the Iranian product can compete in the market when it not only replaces imports, but surpasses them in terms of quality and service.

Supporting the Iranian brand Zarrineh is supporting the collective effort of specialists and workers who have taken an important step in the country's industrial self-sufficiency with local knowledge, modern technology and work commitment.
