dc.description.abstract | Many refineries and chemical plants are presently experiencing considerable fuel savings and reduced maintenance costs as a result of their heat exchanger monitoring activities. Significant energy credits can be generated with proper applications of heat exchanger monitoring, the development of an optimum cleaning strategy and the use of antifoulants. This paper presents a brief overview of the heat exchanger monitoring procedure, and through examples, it shows the incentives of monitoring to measure base fouling, to determine optimum cleaning cycles, and to determine the effects of an antifoulant to control fouling. | en |
