Abstract

Fouling is severely connected to corrosion. Organic, inorganic, preoperational, process-side, water-side, and fire-side fouling are described. The reasons and problems arising from fouling, its mechanism, control methods of fouling in organic and cooling water systems are analyzed. Mechanical and chemical cleaning procedures, preoperational cleaning and passivation, safety, environmental and general recommendations for implementation of cleaning are presented.
