Dry ice blasting applications: some advantages

Le cryogenic cleaning is a method non-toxic and environmentally friendly to remove layer and dust from various surfaces. It is also effective for reducing production downtime and minimizing secondary waste. This is particularly advantageous for industries where it is necessary to maintain quality et hygiene of products.

Le cryogenic cleaning is a non-abrasive process that can be safely used on virtually all surfaces. It offers superior cleanliness and can eliminate months of buildup. As a result, it is suitable for electrical and mechanical devices, as well as food processing equipment.

Compared to abrasive blasting, dry ice blasting does not produce fine particles, dust or smoke. Therefore, it is ideal for delicate surfaces that cannot withstand abrasive blasting.

La Carbon dioxide ice can clean hard-to-reach surfaces, such as between crevices and between large metal parts. Moreover, it is a fast et effective method for removing stubborn sticky buildup. Additionally, it allows for more frequent cleaning, and thus a longer equipment lifespan.

Three factors influence the effectiveness of the dry ice blasting procedure:

1- the thermal conductivity of the contaminant*,

2- the blasting power (pressure and volume) that impartskinetic energy to the dry ice. This creates shearing of the contamination.

3- the sublimation or transition of the ice from solid to gaseous state which, with the help of compressed air, literally blows away the contamination.

*: For example, if the contaminant has high thermal conductivity, the process efficiency will be reduced. On the other hand, if the contaminant has low thermal conductivity, efficiency will be increased.
