Oily Water Separation Process Using Hydrocyclone of Porous Membrane Wall: A Numerical Investigation

This research aims to study the process of separating water contaminated with oil using a hydrocyclone with a porous wall (membrane), containing two tangential inlets and two concentric outlets (concentrate and permeate), at the base of the equipment. For the study, the computational fluid dynamics...
