Hydrocyclones operate under system pressure, and use pressure drop as the primary source of energy. Each hydrocyclone liner in a vessel is fed tangentially to initiate a high radial velocity. The spinning motion of the fluid is accelerated by the tapered shape of the hydrocyclone liner, and the spinning motion creates a centrifugal force up to
