Why dry ice blasting is a green cleaning process

Dry Ice blasting is the process of using liquid Carbon Dioxide (Dry Ice) pellets for cleaning purposes. This process is favoured by many companies as it is very eco-friendly, safe and hassle-free. It is a much better option than other processes like sand blast, water blast, etc.

Following are the reasons why Dry Ice blasting is a green cleaning process:

• Dry Ice is an industrial byproduct. When it is used for cleaning, it undergoes the process of sublimation. This ensures that no harmful chemical residue is left behind, causing unnecessary hassle of a secondary cleanup. Hence, it is a wealth, generated out of waste. 

• It doesn't add to the Carbon Dioxide level in the atmosphere, thus not a threat to the ozone layer. 

• Dry Ice blasting doesn’t create secondary waste like other cleaning processes. In this way, impact on environmental safety and the immediate vicinity is reduced. 

• Workers won’t face the risk of being prone to airborne chemicals and solvents. 

• Dry Ice blasting is tested to be safe on food processing equipment. 

• With Dry Ice blasting, one is freed from the special care, handling and regulatory obedience to laws of waste disposal as this method doesn’t produce any waste at all like other processes.

Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting

What is Dry Ice Blasting?

Dry Ice Blasting, a kind of abrasive cleaning, is a process whereby dry ice (the solid state of Carbon Dioxide) is accelerated in a pressurized air stream to remove any undesirable contaminant off the underlying surface area of a material. These soft dry ice pellets are shot at high speeds to clean equipment in industries, such as semiconductor, food and aerospace, besides general maintenance works. 

Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting

• Effective Cleaning

Dry Ice blasting is one desirable cleanup process as it thoroughly cleans equipment. When the dry ice pellets hit a surface, it immediately undergoes sublimation, where the substance directly changes from solid to gas state without undergoing the intermediary liquid state. Thereby, it leaves only the residue of the undesirable contaminant and no secondary residue to be cleaned, which is the case of other procedures like sand blasting and water blasting. Additionally, the dry ice cleans crevices which are not reachable by hand or undetected by the naked eye. This eliminates the probability of a potential future leak. 

• In-Situ Cleanup Process

Dry Ice blasting is hassle free as it doesn't necessitate the need to disassemble and dislodge movable property that doesn't need cleanup. Due to the sublimation process, all the solid CO2 will disappear, leaving back only the residue. Therefore, in case of other types of blasting, there is no risk of other equipment in place getting hit by the harsh sand particles or getting wet by water.

• Saving Labour and Secondary Cleanup Cost

Due to the fact that Dry Ice Blasting is an in-situ cleanup process, the additional costs of manual labour of disassembling, moving equipment and transport are saved. Similarly, like water blasting or sand blasting, there is no additional residue like sand or water that needs to be cleaned up. The secondary clean-up process can turn out to be the actually challenge and Dry Ice Blasting eliminates that. This also saves a great deal of precious time and work can resume quickly due to the relatively less time required for cleanup. 

• An Eco-friendly Cleanup Process

With the rising environmental consciousness, Dry Ice Blasting is gaining the nod of many industries as the most viable and most eco-friendly cleanup method available. The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) highly recommends CO2 blasting to industries. At the outset, this process uses Carbon Dioxide, which can be an industrial by-product. Thus, it recycles what would have been an industrial waste that would haphazardly affect our ozone layer. Secondly, it doesn't use harmful solvents. The sublimated CO2 gas is in turn used by plants and trees for photosynthesis, thus not affecting the ecological cycle.

Why choose Dry Ice Blasting over traditional cleaning methods?

If your current cleaning process is experiencing prolonged cleaning time, high costs for secondary waste disposal and costly wear and tear on equipment, it is high time to evaluate your type of cleaning process and change it for the better.

Dry Ice Blasting is a globally acknowledged and tried-and-tested formula used for cleaning equipments in an advanced way. It is environmentally employee and equipment friendly alternative to the traditional cleaning methods used in the bygone days.

Here are some reasons why Dry Ice Blasting is superior to other cleaning processes:

1. Superior clean methods along with fewer cleaning cycles result to lesser cleaning time.

2. Machines can be cleaned in the same place, as there is no spreading of dust while cleaning the products. 

3. Dry Ice Blasting is a dry process and requires no disassemble/reassemble, which means much less downtime.

4. Quicker cleaning is done with fewer resources, which lead to more profits.

5. Non-abrasive, nonflammable and nonconductive: Dry Ice Blasting won't damage most substrates and can be used safely on electrical components.

6. No secondary waste cleanup: This not only saves additional cleanup labour and expenditure, but also means temporary containment areas which can possibly be reused. This is an additional way of cost savings.

7. Can get into tight spaces that many other methods cannot.

8. Operator safety: No exposure to any chemicals.

9. Operator efficiency: Not as labour intensive as traditional cleaning methods.

Benefits of Dry Ice Blasting

Dry ice-blasting is a form of abrasive blasting, where dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide, is accelerated in a pressurized air stream and directed at a surface in order to clean it. 

Dry Ice blasting is a more technical, effective and advanced way of cleaning compared to other traditional cleaning methods. 

Benefit #1: Decrease of time because of Cleaning In-Place

Typical cleaning procedures require that equipment be disassembled and moved to an assigned area for proper cleaning. That is not the case with dry ice blasting. Therefore Dry Ice Blasting saves time and helps in faster working process.

Benefit #2: Faster and More Thorough Cleaning

With dry ice blast cleaning, a superior clean can be achieved while reducing hours when compared to scrubbing with abrasive pads or wire brushes. A tremendous labor savings is accomplished.

Benefit #3: Elimination of Equipment Damage

Dry ice blasting often eliminates equipment damage. Dry ice is non-abrasive to surfaces and does not change a surface’s structure. It lifts the contaminants away. And because equipment can now be cleaned in place, potential damage from moving equipment to and from a dedicated cleaning area is also eliminated.

Benefit #4: Reduction or Elimination of Solvents

Dry ice blasting uses no solvents, but instead uses harmless CO2 pellets. This can be a critical need for certain companies in order to comply with environmental regulations or to improve worker safety.

Benefit #5: Reductions in Waste Disposal

With other cleaning methods, whether it be with solvents, sand blasting or some other means, the cleaning agent becomes a secondary contaminant and must be disposed of as toxic waste along with the primary contaminant. However, with dry ice blast cleaning because the CO2 pellet vaporizes upon contact, the only waste created is the contaminant itself. 

Benefit #6: Increased Safety

Dry ice blasting pellets are non-toxic, non-hazardous creating advantages to the environment, your employees, and production facility.
