FLOW-THROUGH SEPARATOR FOR SEPARATION OF DISPERSED PARTICLES FROM GAS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC B01D45/12 B01D46/18 

FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention is designed to separated dispersed particles from gases or vapours and may be used in power engineering, oil processing, petrochemical and chemical industries. Through-flow separator comprises flanged casing with inlet and outlet and fluid discharge opening. Multi-start helical hollow casing composed of three and more convex curvilinear variable-width shape and strips coiled in vertical plane in lengthwise direction and bent in helical lines at angle of 45° to make helical pockets shaped as isosceles and scalene triangles or trapeziums. Casing composed of at least one strip bent in straight lines arranged at, at least, 45° to strip edges to make identical parallelograms alternating in opposite directions on said strip. Said strip is cylindrically coiled, turns being connected along lengthwise edges. Helical spring with device to vary turn pitch by spring compression or expansion is arranged along container length.

EFFECT: higher efficiency of separation.
