Abstract: Self-Cleaning Heat Exchanger with Automated Mechanical Scraper System for Fouling Removal in Industrial Applications. This invention describes a self-cleaning heat exchanger designed to address fouling in industrial heat transfer systems. Fouling, caused by the accumulation of materials like minerals, biological deposits, and sediments, reduces efficiency and increases maintenance costs. The heat exchanger features an automated mechanical scraper system that actively removes fouling from heat exchange surfaces. Integrated sensors monitor fouling levels in real time, ensuring optimal cleaning without interrupting operations. The system reduces energy consumption, maintenance costs, and downtime while extending equipment lifespan, making it a cost-effective solution for industries such as power generation, petrochemicals, and food processing.
