Blasting with Dry Ice
CO2 - Dry Ice Blasting Has Been Successfully Used In Many different Industrial Cleaning Applications
Cold Jet blasting is an efficient and cost-effective way for many industries to maximize production capability and quality. Blasting is used to manage production residues, release agents and contaminants; it is successful in stripping paints, oils and biofilms; and is used for many general facilities cleaning applications. This dry blasting process is non-abrasive, nonflammable and nonconductive. Cold Jet systems may therefore be used without damaging active electrical or mechanical parts or creating fire hazards.

Cold Jet Dry Ice for Blasting
The dry ice media used for blasting comes in two forms: pellets (3 mm or smaller) or blocks. The standard 3 mm pellet allows for a more aggressive clean as the particles blasted tend to be larger and more irregularly sized. Shaved block dry ice produces much finer and more consistently sized particles allowing for more delicate surfaces to be cleaned without damage. Blasting with Dry Ice
Cold Jet Dry Ice for Shipping
Dry ice nuggets, block, pellets or slabs are being used for shipping (food products, aluminum parts or biological products). Dry ice slabs are predominantly used by airline caterers; pellets are typically used for smaller packages over shorter distances whereas nuggets are used to ship larger packages over longer distances.

Cold Jet Dry Ice for Food Processing
Dry ice is a yeast retardant. It is also bacteriostatic and fungiostatic and is excellent for removing biofilm. Meat processors and bakers use large quantities of dry ice for these properties. The Dry Ice is mixed in calculated doses into the mixers to keep the mixes cool, preventing the growth of bacteria and fungi and, in the case of baking mixes, to slow the leavening process. Dry Ice pellets are being used instead of direct LCO2 injection because their amount and weight are easier to control and the process is simplier and safer. As it is a dry product it does not add water to the mix.Food Processing with Dry Ice
