Abstract: Separation of solid from petroleum residue was carried out with a hydrocyclone at high temperature. And the influence on the separation efficiency of hydrocyclone was studied owing to the physical property and the petroleum chemical ingredient of the residue. The experimental results show that hygrocyclone can separate high-density particles in the residue effectively. And the density and viscosity of the flows before and after separation vary greatly. The separating efficiencies of toluene insoluble components, asphaltene and resin reach to 53.6%, 47.1% and 30.7% respectively under the temperature of 200℃ and the flow rate of 15 m3/h, which is mainly due to the combination and reuniting among particles and macromolecules. Moreover, calculation on cutting diameter was made according to the equilibrium orbit theory and testified to be consistent with the result of experiments.
