Zusammenfassung:A spin contactor is provided for contacting a particulate with a fluid. The spin contactor has a containment section that may contain the particulate, a fluid inlet, and a fluid outlet. The containment section comprises an upper particulate separator, a lower particulate separator, and a conical wall. In most cases, the spin contactor includes a shaft to be operatively coupled to a means for spinning the spin contactor. The fluid is drawn upwardly through the fluid inlet to contact the particulate and then expelled through the fluid outlet. A process of treating a fluid composition is provided by sending the fluid composition through the spin contactor comprising particulates.
