Introduction to Cyclones

A grinding mill needs a classifier to extract the particles that have been milled sufficiently finely, and to send oversize particles back to the mill for further grinding. A cyclone does this, with the cyclone overflow being the mill final product, and the underflow reporting back to the mill feed. This
