LONG DWELL, SHORT DRIFT, MAGNETOHYDROSTATIC CENTRIFUGE AND METHOD Abstract of the Disclosure A magnetohydrostatic centrifuge of unique geom- etry in which an elongated separation space is pro- vided within the bore of an elongate cylindrically shaped multipolar magnet. Separations are accomplished both with and without rotation by passing particles to be separated through the separation space within a paramagnetic or ferromagnetic fluid. Certain separa- tions are preferably made using a quadrupolar magnet configuration with a paramagnetic fluid, others with a quadrupolar magnet and a ferromagnetic fluid, and still others, with a sextupolar magnet and a ferro- magnetic fluid. Efficient use is made of the mag- netic field through the use of a plurality of inner ducts creating a plurality of thin, elongate separa- tion channels characterized by long particle dwell time and short drift distances during the separation process. Significant throughput capacity is achieved in a system in which the magnetic medium is pumped through the separator.
