Fighting Scale and Corrosion on Geothermal Plant Equipment: Addressing Challenges in Harsh Environments
Geothermal plants operate in environments characterized by high temperatures, aggressive chemical compositions, and varying pressures. These extreme conditions, while necessary for extracting geothermal energy, also create a perfect storm for scale formation and corrosion.
A Comprehensive Guide on Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers: Design, Functionality, and Applications
Regular maintenance of a shell and tube heat exchanger is essential to ensure efficient operation and to avoid the onset of ‘fouling’ – the unwanted accumulation of material on heat transfer surfaces.
The Comprehensive Guide to Choosing the Right Antifouling Coating for Your Heat Exchanger
Efficiency of a heat exchanger is often compromised by a universal issue: fouling. This accumulation of unwanted material can drastically reduce the heat transfer rate, increase pressure drop, and lead to equipment failure if left unchecked.
Estimating CO2 Emissions from Global Refineries Due to Heat Exchanger Fouling: A Comprehensive Analysis
fouling is a major issue, often leading to a decrease in heat transfer efficiency and an increase in energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Fouling types can range from particulate, biological, chemical, and composite, each posing unique challenges and requiring varied mitigation strategies.
