Dry ice has a wide range of uses that can meet the needs of different sectors. Especially in areas such as pharmaceutical production, chemical industry and food industry, frozen carbon dioxide (CO₂) plays a critical role as a cooling medium.
The production process of this special material is carried out under specific physical conditions. At a temperature of approximately -20 ° C and a pressure of 20 bar, liquid CO₂ is stored in low-pressure tanks. When this liquid is transferred to a specially designed pressure cylinder, both carbon dioxide gas and carbon dioxide snow are produced, thanks to reaching ambient pressure and rapid cooling. This snow, at a temperature of approximately -78.5 ° C, is molded by mechanical compression, and in this process, dry ice particles with a diameter of 3 mm and a length of 10 mm are formed.
It offers dry ice to the market in different formats according to user needs: pellet (granules), ingots and plates. Products from 10 kilograms are shipped by being placed in specially designed styrofoam insulation boxes according to demand. For larger demands, special container systems with a dry ice capacity of 600 kilograms come into play.
