| Dry Ice Blasting uses tiny dry ice particles propelled by compressed air to remove contamination from surface areas. Upon impact, the solid dry ice expands, and then coverts to a harmless gas.
This results in a clean, dry, undamaged surface, with no secondary waste to clean up.
This process is so versatile; it can remove dust from delicate electrical components or layers of heavily encrusted coats of paint.
Dry Ice Blasting:
• is a non-abrasive, nonflammable and nonconductive cleaning method
• is environmentally-friendly and contains no secondary contaminants such as solvents or grit media
• is clean and approved for use in the food industry
• allows most items to be cleaned in place without time-consuming disassembly
• can be used without damaging active electrical or mechanical parts or creating fire hazards
• can be used to remove production residues, release agents, contaminants, paints, oils and biofilms
• can be as gentle as dusting smoke damage from books or as aggressive as removing weld slag from tooling
• can be used for many general cleaning applications
Soda Blasting removes old paint and rust from surfaces in preparation for a new protective coating.
It also eliminates electrolytes, such as acid and chlorides.
After soda blasting, the structural steel will have no activated anode or cathode steel molecules. Even after extended periods the absence of rust can be observed in the bare metal.
The soda blasting process removes coatings from any kind from a substrate safely and efficiently. It is very similar to traditional sand blasting, yet has the advantage of cleaning the surface without causing any harm to the substrate or the environment.
The soda blasting machine uses compressed air to deliver bicarbonate of soda-based media (baking soda) onto the surface to be cleaned. Similar in concept to sand blasting, soda blasting is much kinder and gentler to the underlying surface and the environment. Soda blast media is FDA approved, non-toxic, and contains no free silica; it is non-sparking, non-flammable, non-hazardous, and environmentally safe.
