Abstract
Fouling and cleaning in heat exchangers are severe and costly issues in dairy and food processing. In this study, a planar setup for dairy protein fouling production and its detection using ultrasound is displayed. A method to produce dairy protein fouling reproducible and a cleaning procedure for defined cleaning were developed. Ultrasonic measurements of fouling presence and absence were made combining acoustic and signal parameters and classification methods. Thus, fouling can be determined online and cleaning success of a fouled heat exchanger can be monitored.
