| Project duration | June 2013 - December 2013 |
| Status | Completed |
Purpose and goal
To analyse and evaluate the anti fouling Product capabilities and strength in real life operation.
Results and expected effects
The result shows that treated Surfaces are much cleaner than untreated Surfaces. Expected strength of 1 year (~8000h) has been overcome and up to now shows 16000h.
Approach and implementation
The tests have been performed by applying the anti fouling Product on the whole compressor during major overhaul. Follow-up was done approx. every 6 months with fiber optic Equipment.
