Cyclone separator - Energy Education

Out of all of the particulate-control devices, cyclone separators are among the least expensive. They are often used as a pre-treatment before the flue gas enters more effective pollution control devices. Therefore, cyclone separators can be seen as "rough separators" before the flue gas reaches the fine filtration stages. Effectiveness

Methane Digesters For Fuel Gas and Fertilizer

The digester is fed with a mixture of water and wastes, called "slurry." Inside the digester, each daily load of fresh slurry flows in one end and displaces the previous day's load which bacteria and other microbes have already started to digest. Each load progresses down the length of the digester to a point where the methane bacteria are active.
