EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION OF ELECTRONIC ANTI-FOULING TECHNOLOGY WITH A PLATE HEAT EXCHANGER
Sinopsis
The objective of the present study was to investigate the validity of a new electronic anti-fouling (EAF) technology through accelerated fouling tests. The EAF technology has been developed for the purpose of mitigating scales in both plate-and-frame and shell-and-tube heat exchangers. The present test results obtained from the present study demonstrate that the EAF technology can significantly reduce scale deposits both in an accelerated fouling test and in a field study.
