Due to the the continuously variable fluid temperature and narrower fluid channels than other channels, the effects of calcification occurs more quickly and more effectively.

Effects of calcification for plate heat exchangers:
- Narrowing of the flow channels
- Increase in pressure loss
- Reduction of heat transfer



Lime is the most difficult type of pollution than other pollutants to clean. After the first grip, lime molecules multiply rapidly with accumulate top of each other as shown in the above photograph.
