Jde o označení pro nahromaděný materiál, popřípadě jeho nános, vyčuhující z pod hladiny ve chladicí vaně. Jde o slang, ale netuším, jak moc je rozšířený, je možné, že to nemá protějšek. Opisný překlad nepotřebuji, jde mi vyloženě o toho kapra.

Comment: "I agree with both translations. I will talk to the client about this (whether they insist on slang or not). If not, I will probably go with debris."

scum
Solely based on your explanation, but scum is not limited to coolant tanks (Czech approx. šlem, povlak, kal, plovoucí struska ...).
