2. Dry Ice Blast Principles
Comparison of dry ice blast cleaning and grid medium cleaning
The cleaning principle of dry ice blasting is the gas wedge effect.
When dry ice strikes the basal surface of the contaminant, volatile energy causes CO2 to be released laterally to lift up and strip away the contaminants.The cleaning surface remains undamaged unlike the abrasive grit media cleaning.
*The gas wedge effect consists of dry ice being accelerated to supersonic speed causing miniature
explosions on the surface and stripping away unnecessary material from the base layer.

3. Characteristics of Dry Ice Blasting
- Secondary contaminants are greatly reduced, if not fully eliminated
- Base material is not damaged
- Disassembly/Assembly of cleaned items not required (reduced work time)
- Blast material does not need to be collected (cost reduction)
- Revolutionary cleaning method with no environmental impact
4. Comparison with Other Industrial Methods
Industrial Method | Secondary Waste |
Conductivity | Abrasives | Toxicity | Effectiveness |

Dry ice blasting does not emit secondary waste so that processing waste is greatly reduced, and no toxic solvents or chemicals are used, making it a safe method with no adverse effects on worker’s health.
Dry ice blasting can be considered to be the optimal cleaning method among all current methods.
