    Fouling is the unwanted buildup of material on surfaces in contact with liquids, such as pipes and heat exchangers. This buildup can damage equipment, increase energy costs, and reduce efficiency. Marine fouling occurs when organisms like mussels attach themselves to underwater structures like boats and ropes. Fouling can be removed through mechanical, chemical, or thermal cleaning methods. Mechanical cleaning physically removes soiled material while chemical cleaning uses solvents or acids. Thermal cleaning burns off soiled material with heat. The type of fouling and equipment determines the best removal process, so regular inspection and cleaning is important.

    Sir: M. IDREES
    What is fouling and what are techniques used its removal?
    Fouling & its Removal:
    Fouling is the growth of unwanted material on surfaces that come into contact with
    liquids, such as pipes, heat exchangers, and filter systems. Material buildup can
    lead to equipment damage, higher energy costs, and reduced efficiency. The
    removal of fouling should be careful in marine it is Marine fouling occurs when
    organisms attach themselves to underwater objects like boats, rope, pipes and
    building structures. Mussels are one of the biggest culprits. Once attached, they are
    difficult to remove, Fouling can be removed by various methods such as
    mechanical cleaning, chemical cleaning and thermal cleaning. Mechanical cleaning
    requires the physical removal of soiled material. Dry cleaning uses solvents or
    acids to dissolve the soiling material. In pyrogenic cleaning, the action of heat
    burns off the soiled material. The type, extent, and use of fouling equipment affect
    the processes used. To avoid this, it is important to inspect and clean the equipment
    regularly.
