Mitigating Convection Section Fouling in Industrial Fired Heaters for 2026

"Convection section fouling refers to the accumulation of solid or liquid deposits on the external surfaces of heat exchanger tubes, fins, or studs within the convection bank of industrial fired heaters, boilers, and reformers. This article focuses on heavy industrial process engineering and thermal efficiency management. Mechanics of Convection Section Fouling and Thermal Degradation Fouling in the convection section is a primary driver of process inefficiency. As exhaust gases travel from the radiant section to the stack, they must pass through the convection section. When these gases contain particulates, condensable vapors, or ash, they ad..."
