Dry ice blasting today
The world has evolved and with it its share of progress and exciting techniques, the appearance of new types of contaminants.
Current industrial cleaning techniques are not necessarily the ones that give the best result.
In an attempt to remove contaminants, products are very frequently used, such as solvents and detergents, which sometimes offer poor results and involve the treatment of secondary waste. Examples: cloths soiled with pollutant, abrasive mixed with contaminant…
There is, however, a technology that is truly beneficial to the environment, in terms of profit and more importantly in terms of efficiency.
What is this technology called? The cryogenic cleaning process.
Dry ice blasting: explanations of the process, steps…
The dry ice cleaning technique uses dry ice (-78.5 °C) as a cleaning agent.
The format used is pellets with a diameter of 3 mm (in the shape of sticks), and in most cases, the ice used is food grade.
You can get this precious media from gas companies such as Air Liquide, Messer, Sol France, Yara… or with one of their partners.
How does it work? Dry ice is placed inside the hopper or tank of a blaster.
This is then mixed with the compressed air using a honeycomb tray: by rotating the tray, the solid CO₂ pellets are faced with a compressed airflow. The resulting mixture is then conveyed through a firing pipe.
The ice projection on the surface to be cleaned is carried out using a gun and a spray nozzle.
The source of the compressed air may be either:
– an industrial network,
– a network of workshops,
– an electric or thermal construction compressor
The interest in cleaning by cryonics lies in the triple action of dry ice, making it a real solution for removing new contaminants.
By clicking on this link everything you need to know about dry ice cleaning, you will discover a wealth of information about this process!
The first step is the mechanical shock or mechanical effect caused by the dry ice, projected at high speed on the pollution: dry ice creates cracks on the contaminant (varnish, paint, glue …).
This leads to a weakening of pollution. This is made possible thanks to the kinetic energy stored by the pellets during their spraying: Ec= 1/2 m (weight of CO₂) x V² (projection speed)
The second stage is the thermal shock or thermal effect, also known as the “thermal differential”. Dry ice at -78.5°C cools the pollution. This difference in the temperature of the pollution and the support retracts the latter without damaging the surface or substrate.
The third step is sublimation or change of state: passage from the solid state to the gaseous state of solid CO₂ into GAS CO₂, in a ratio of 1 to 700. The dirt is removed by the breath!

Dry ice cleaning: an ecological treatment that does not involve the reprocessing of secondary waste
Dry ice blasting is truly an ecological cleaning technique. Indeed, Unlike sandblasting, airbrushing, hydroscrubbing or high-pressure cleaning, it does not generate secondary waste to be reprocessed.
The cryogenic cleaning technique causes the removed dirt to fall by gravity. As a rule, a sweep or using vacuum cleaners (or suction) is enough!
The costs of reprocessing disappear.
Cryogenic cleaning is the professional cleaning par excellence!
For the degreasing of your surfaces, or to remove all types of dirt: ink, varnish, glue, etc. or to remove food residues, this process is ideal.
Without chemicals and cleaning products, to ensure the exemplary cleanliness of your production processes, Cryoblaster® dry ice cleaning equipment allows, thanks to the projection of dry ice (carbon dioxide) pellets, the dry cleaning of the surfaces to be treated, no oxidation possible, dry ice does not contain water.
Carbon dioxide in solid form (compacted dry ice) is an excellent low-temperature degreaser.
For cleaning in the food industry, for post-disaster intervention or decontamination, or for treating surfaces with non-abrasive CO₂ pellets or beads, Cryoblaster® dry ice blasting machines are essential tools for service providers and manufacturers.
All the advantages of dry ice blasting: dry, non-abrasive, economical
- Cryogenic cleaning is a dry process. Since solid CO₂ does not contain traces of moisture, you may want to consider cleaning a de-energized electrical cabinet or dry cleaning after a fire.
- Dry ice blasting is non-abrasive, unlike sandblasting or airbrushing because the hardness of solid CO₂ is comparable to that of chalk. It is, therefore, respectful of the treated surfaces.
- Dry ice cleaning is much faster than traditional cleaning methods: at least 4 times and up to 8 times. It requires little or no disassembly.
- Unlike sandblasting or the use of a kärcher, the service can be carried out in situ: no water, no sand…
- The use of cryogenic cleaning in an agri-food environment slows down the proliferation of the following bacteria:
E. coli, Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella enteritidis are all 3 responsible for foodborne illness.
- Another significant advantage is that the process is non-toxic
- The process of cleanliness by spraying dry ice particles makes it possible to carry out many applications: degrease, strip the rust flower, remove graffiti, sticker … Cleaning car engines or rims. In addition, cryogenics can limit production stoppage: production lines are cleaned up to 8 times faster than traditional methods.
- Thanks to the on-board pressure regulator, you can now deburr plastic parts. The process is fast, efficient, and environmentally friendly, using an electric compressor.
