Fouling
Definition
The act of fouling and its result; a structural process of accumulation and deposition of a layer of carbon deposits, oily residues, soot, or impurities on the inner surfaces of mechanisms or industrial facilities. The phenomenon reduces thermal efficiency, decreases the useful section of pipes, and can cause serious failure of internal combustion engines.
