Assessment of the Impact of Temperature on Biofilm Composition with a Laboratory Heat Exchanger Module

Assessment of the Impact of Temperature on Biofilm Composition with a Laboratory Heat Exchanger Module

Temperature change over the length of heat exchangers might be an important factor affecting biofouling. This research aimed at assessing the impact of temperature on biofilm accumulation and composition with respect to bacterial community and extracellular polymeric substances. Two identical labora...
