How Does Dry Ice Blasting Work?
At EAI, dry ice blasting is our primary method for cleaning oil field equipment and structures. Dry ice blasting uses frozen carbon dioxide and compressed air to dislodge residue and blow it away. The dry ice blasting process is safer for equipment than methods that use other solid materials like sand or crushed glass. Plus, the process creates little waste, resulting in fast cleanup and minimal environmental impact. Here’s how it works:
- The blasting machine uses compassed air to project pellets of frozen carbon dioxide through a hose and nozzle.
- The frozen pellets send residue into thermal shock just before impact, causing the residue to freeze and crumble.
- The carbon dioxide pellets collide with residue on the cleaning surface and vaporize upon impact.
- The impact force and compressed air combine to further dislodge residue and send it away from the surface.
