'''Cyclones''' use a method called cyclonic separation. It removes solid particulates from an air, gas or liquid stream, without the use of filters, through vortex separation. Rotational effects and gravity  are used to separate mixtures of solids and fluids. The method can also  be used to separate fine droplets of liquid from a gaseous stream.
