Abstract: A hydrocyclone having a mid-section having a longitudinal axis and a radius, and a fluid injection member releasably connected to the mid-section. The fluid injection member has a dilution passage therethrough and two spaced apart dilution ports, at least one dilution port being at an angle between 15 and 75 degrees relative to the mid-section radius. The injection member comprises a nozzle housing releasably connected to the mid-section, the nozzle housing having a dilution passage therethrough, and a nozzle adapted to be connected to the nozzle housing, the nozzle being planar and having at least one dilution port therethrough, the nozzle being receivable within the dilution passage.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for citrus fruit processing comprising the steps of introducing liquid citrus fruit material to be processed via an inlet to a centrifugal separator being mechanically hermetically sealed at the inlet and at the liquid outlets; separating the citrus fruit material in the separator to obtain at least a liquid heavy phase and a liquid light phase, wherein the density of the liquid heavy phase is higher than the density of the liquid light phase; discharging the liquid heavy phase via a liquid heavy phase outlet and the liquid light phase via a liquid light phase outlet of the separator; measuring at least one parameter of the discharged liquid heavy phase and/or liquid light phase, wherein the parameter is related to a concentration of the heavy phase in the liquid light phase, or vice versa; and adjusting the counter pressure of the liquid heavy phase outlet with respect to the liquid light phase outlet, or vice versa, based on the measurement in step d) so as to control
