A system design approach for overcoming heat exchanger fouling bottlenecks - a study on a refinery preheat train

Process fouling and the penalties associated with it in petroleum refinery, particularly in the crude preheat train, have been the subject of extensive research over the last 30 years. Periodic cleaning and temperature drop due to the fouling have resulted in productivity losses and increased energy...
