Abstract

See full text

A particle collector for a dynamic cyclone placed on the ocean bottom for separation of particles in a fluid is described, where the dynamic cyclone comprises a tank (2) which is equipped with an upper inlet opening (25) and an upper and lower outlet opening (26, 32) for outflow of fluid and particles, respectively. Furthermore, the tank comprises a shaft (5) which is equipped with a number of vanes or blades (6) and which is arranged to be driven by an adjoining motor (1), where a centrally placed piece of pipe (4) with a number of slits is arranged around the shaft (5). A pressure tank (12) for particle collection is arranged downstream of the lower outlet opening (32) of the cyclone, via an inlet (18), as the pressure tank (12) comprises a collector (13) with at least a partially open top, where the collector (13) rests in a liquid bath and on a weight meter (15) in the tank (12), and also an ejector (14) which is arranged to supply liquid via an inlet (8) and to send out a fluid mixture from the collector (13) via an outlet (16).
