Hydro-cyclone is a____________________?
Correct answer: B. wet classifier
- A. Crusher
- B. wet classifier
- C. Dry classifier
- D. Magnetic separator
Explanation
A hydrocyclone separates particles from a liquid by centrifugal action, with heavier particles moving outward and downward. It is therefore classified as a wet classifier, unlike an air classifier used for dry separation.
