Multi-scale modelling of refinery pre-heat trains undergoing fouling for improved energy efficiency

Fouling in pre–heat trains of refinery crude distillation units causes major energy inefficiencies, resulting in increased costs, greenhouse gas emissions, maintenance efforts and health and safety hazards. Although chemical and physical phenomena underlying fouling deposition are extremely complex...
