Visbreaking is a thermal cracking process used to reduce the viscosity of heavy fuel oil (HFO) to produce lighter, more valuable products. However, one of the major challenges in visbreaking units is fouling—the accumulation of carbon deposits and other contaminants on heat exchanger surfaces, reactor walls, and pipelines. Fouling reduces heat transfer efficiency, increases energy...
