Together with liquid CO2 gas, SS Gas Lab Asia is the
leading manufacturers and suppliers of dry ice plants & equipment.
Dry ice is nothing but solid carbon dioxide. It is formed by letting
down the pressure of liquid CO2, through a nozzle or other bottleneck.
An amount of the liquid CO2, passing through the nozzle, vaporizes and
sub cools the remaining fluid. Hence, it is born-again into snow like
particles which is known as "Dry Ice".
Dry Ice Equipment has a wide range of application which are as follows
:
- With the help of Dry Ice, heat sensitive chemical reactions are
carried out
- Hardening of blades etc. is done with dry ice
- Shrink fitting is done with the use of dry ice for closer
tolerances
- Decreased downtime through cleaning in-place
- Elimination of equipment damage
- Faster and more thorough cleaningFor food preservation and
transportation, it lowers the temperature and the dry ice evaporates
- Low temperature / cryo grinding etc
Process for Making Dry Ice:
Types & Plant Sizes
We make use of different types of dry ice machines for different
applications. We can supply dry ice machines, dry ice plant in two
varieties:
- Cylindrical blocks
- Rectangular blocks
Generally block size is 5" dia x 12" length. These blocks
weigh around 7-8 kg. The Dry Ice Plant sizes ranges from 45 kg/hr to 300
kg/hr. Dry ice machines making small size nuggets of 1.0" - 1.5"
are also available.
Dry Ice Machines & Storage
We go for custom orders as well, irrespective of the sizes. For very
small requirements of our clients, our company offers a small
inexpensive gadget which can make dry ice from a CO2 cylinder. By using
this, dry ice snow can be manufactured at the rate of 5-10 kg/hr.
However the drawback in such cases is that the "block" is not
firm and compared to dry ice obtained from regular CO2 plants,
efficiency is less as. Dry ice equipment is ideal if requirement is
small and occasional.
We also supply machines to our clients
- To cut blocks
- To put dry ice on continuous conveyor belts of food/medicine
- To fill CO2/dry ice in medicine/chemical/food packages
- Special freezer for temperature below -45°C is also
available
Our company also make FRP-Polyurethane insulated boxes and canvas
bags with polyurethane sheets. These are used for storage of dry ice.
Having excellent insulation properties, these storages keep the dry ice
for longer time with minimum evaporation losses.
