Abstract

This research introduces an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based model designed to concurrently optimize energy supply management, biocide dosing, and maintenance scheduling for heat exchangers. This optimization considers energetic, technical, economic, and environmental considerations. The impact of biofilm on heat exchangers is assessed, revealing a 41% reduction in thermal efficiency and a 113% increase in flow frictional resistance of the fluid compared to the initial state. Consequently, the pump's power consumption, required to maintain hydraulic conditions, rises by 9%. The newly developed AI model detects the point at which the heat exchanger's performance begins to decline due to accumulating dirt, marking day 44 of experimentation as the threshold to commence the antifouling biocide dosing. Leveraging this AI model to monitor heat exchanger efficiency represents an innovative approach to optimizing antifouling biocide dosing and reduce the environmental impact stemming from industrial plants.

从环境、技术、能源和经济等方面考虑，建立人工智能模型，优化海水冷却工业流程应用中的杀菌剂剂量。

本研究介绍了一种基于人工智能（AI）的模型，旨在同时优化热交换器的能源供应管理、杀菌剂剂量和维护调度。这种优化考虑了能源、技术、经济和环境因素。通过评估生物膜对热交换器的影响，发现与初始状态相比，热效率降低了 41%，流体的流动摩擦阻力增加了 113%。因此，维持水力条件所需的泵功率消耗上升了 9%。新开发的人工智能模型可以检测到热交换器的性能因污垢积累而开始下降的时间点，并将实验的第 44 天作为开始添加防污杀菌剂的临界点。利用这一人工智能模型来监控热交换器的效率，是优化防污杀菌剂剂量和减少工业厂房对环境影响的创新方法。

期刊介绍： Biofouling is an international, peer-reviewed, multi-discliplinary journal which publishes original articles and mini-reviews and provides a forum for publication of pure and applied work on protein, microbial, fungal, plant and animal fouling and its control, as well as studies of all kinds on biofilms and bioadhesion. Papers may be based on studies relating to characterisation, attachment, growth and control on any natural (living) or man-made surface in the freshwater, marine or aerial environments, including fouling, biofilms and bioadhesion in the medical, dental, and industrial context. Specific areas of interest include antifouling technologies and coatings including transmission of invasive species, antimicrobial agents, biological interfaces, biomaterials, microbiologically influenced corrosion, membrane biofouling, food industry biofilms, biofilm based diseases and indwelling biomedical devices as substrata for fouling and biofilm growth, including papers based on clinically-relevant work using models that mimic the realistic environment in which they are intended to be used.
