Here are the latest publicly available highlights on cyclonic separation:
SmartCyclone innovations by FLSmidth and related hydrocyclone optimization efforts are actively discussed in industry publications, focusing on keeping vortex finder and apex clear, improving wear life with modular liners, and using CFD-informed inlet heads to boost separation efficiency and reduce turbulence in the inlet region. This reflects ongoing industry emphasis on reliability and finer separations in mill circuits.[1][3]
Desander/desilter cyclone technology continues to evolve with enhanced geometry, automated control, and integration with other separation steps to improve overall process efficiency and reduce energy use, per recent industry notes and vendor literature.[2]
Related overview sources note that newer cyclone solutions, such as enhanced efficiency cyclones, are marketed to address wear, throughput, and fines management in powder and slurry separation applications, indicating continued commercial focus on performance gains from geometry, materials, and sensor-assisted monitoring.[7]
For broader context, cyclonic separation is a well-established separation principle used across mining, mineral processing, and industrial gas and liquid handling, with ongoing research and patent activity around improved conical geometries and sensor-based control of cyclone clusters.[6][9]

We have developed the capability to change inside liners of each separate part of a cyclone so wear life can be extended. We can use different liner materials … an advanced control system for detecting roping in individual cyclones.
