Abstract

An apparatus for separating granular solids from the carrying gas thereof by the use of a swirl stream of a mixture gas in a certain chamber, characterized in that: in addition to said mixture gas to be separated in its treatment, another gas is separately injected into said chamber from its wall surface so as to be brought into contact with said swirl stream of said mixture gas in said chamber so that said granular solids are prevented from adhering to an inner wall surface of said chamber while once adhered granular solids are immediately scaled off.
