Abstract
Particulate solids are separated from their admixture with gases or vaporized liquids by passage through a specially designed cyclone separator wherein the solids are passed down the separator to a plate modified with a circumferential groove leading to a solids outlet, the plate also having a centrally located vertical member designed to minimize turbulent flow of the solids/vapor mixture and fouling of the apparatus.
