This paper describes an engineering application of electromagnetic field (EMF) treatment to mitigate biofouling in seawater-cooled tubular heat exchanger-condensers. After allowing a biofilm to stabilize, EMF treatment was applied and was reported to precipitate dissolved ions and contribute to partial…
