Dropwise condensation
By adding chemicals to the vaporTreat the surface with appropriate chemicalsApply a teflon layer on the surfaceApply a thin layer of gold or any other noble metal on the surface (controversy?)
Disadvantages?
The mechanism is still a mystery.Significant progress recently

Non-condensable gases
Non-condensable gas presents an additional thermal resistance which reduces the heat transfer coefficient
As vapor condenses, the noncondensable gases are accumulated at the surface and the vapor has to diffuse across the vapor-gas mixture
