Fouling or scaling is the formation of deposits on heat exchanger surfaces which are mostly unwanted compounds formed from the precipitation of the dissolved salts and that retard heat transfer from the surfaces. In many industries, acid is used to dissolve and clean the deposits from the heat trans...
