Using Continuous Helical flow to reduce fouling

It would not be an understatement to say that fouling is one of the most costly recurring problems in hydrocarbon processing and that it hits process heaters and heat exchangers the hardest.
Fouling can have a significant impact on heat transfer across the heat exchanger surface, and so likewise on both overall operational performance and total cost of maintenance.
