SUPPORT ESG INITIATIVES WITH DRY ICE, RECYCLED CO 2 IN SOLID FORM

Due to the fact that dry ice is recycled CO2, it will not contribute to your greenhouse gas score. In the calculation of a carbon footprint, CO2 is accounted for at the producer level. It is not counted a second time at the point of use.

WH AT IS DRY ICE?

THE MOST SUSTAINABLE COOLING SOLUTION ON THE MARKET Dry ice is based on the conversion of captured carbon dioxide (CO2) into a value added, commercially useful product. It's the product of the carbon capture and utilization (CCU) process in which CO2 is captured at industrial, biogas, or ambient air capture facilities, converted to liquid CO2, and transformed into dry ice - giving it a second life as a cooling and cleaning medium.

THE UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS OF DRY ICE Dry ice cooling operates much like water ice, phase-changing materials (PCM), and nitrogen cooling in its capacity to reduce the surrounding temperature within a confined space. However, its method sets it apart: dry ice cooling employs solid CO2 pellets or nuggets. These are introduced into a container holding perishable items, ensuring their freshness or frozen state. As the dry ice sublimates, there is no residual waste or contaminant left behind.

WATER FREE

for most biological systems

SPOILAGE RATES DOUBLE FOR EACH 10°C RISE. SHELF LIFE DOUBLES FOR EACH 10°C REDUCTION.

F

C

°

Organizations such as the EPA, FDA, and USDA have endorsed the safety of using dry ice in food processing.

Since it undergoes sublimation rather than melting, it doesn't leave behind any residual components. Water can pose microbial challenges, but with dry ice sublimation, no water remains.

The temperature of dry ice measures (-109°F / -78.5°C), and its cooling power is thrice that of water-formed ice.

Dry ice is a more cost effective alternative to other cooling methods, such as CO2 snow and refrigerated transportation.

The amount of dry ice pellets needed to chill or freeze meat will depend on the following factors: • The size and weight of the meat • The desired temperature of the meat • The ambient temperature • The length of time the meat needs to be chilled or frozen In general, more dry ice pellets will be needed to freeze meat than to chill meat.

It is important to use the correct amount of dry ice to avoid overchilling or overfreezing the meat. Overchilling can cause the meat to become tough, while overfreezing can cause the meat to lose its moisture.

BEEF Within beef processing, it plays several vital roles. Dry ice effectively chills offal boxes, maintaining organ freshness and preventing bacterial growth. It also safeguards meat quality at trim lines where meat is prepared for packaging by preventing drying. Furthermore, dry ice is a key component in mixers and blenders, preventing meat clumping during blending. Additionally, it supports added value shipping by keeping processed meat fresh during transportation. Overall, dry ice enhances beef product quality, safety, and production efficiency, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and production costs in the process.

PORK Dry ice pellets are a critical tool in pork processing facilities, efficiently cooling freshly slaughtered pork to safeguard against spoilage and bacterial growth. In the trimming phase, where pork is precision-cut into various portions, dry ice pellets come into play, ensuring that the pork remains cold and pristine to minimize the risk of cross-contamination. These pellets are equally indispensable during intermodal shipping, maintaining the necessary low temperatures to prevent spoilage. Additionally, they contribute to preserving pork freshness during value-added processes, such as curing or smoking. Their advantages include rapid sub-freezing cooling, food-grade safety, ease of handling, and cost-effectiveness. Overall, dry ice pellets are a reliable means of enhancing pork quality and safety within processing facilities, preventing spoilage and bacterial growth effectively.

Trim Lines Within the trimming area, where pork undergoes segmentation into various cuts, the use of dry ice pellets is integral to maintaining the pork's freshness and low temperature. This

precaution is particularly crucial given the frequent handling of pork throughout the trimming process and the need to prevent any risk of crosscontamination.

Added Value Shipping During intermodal shipping, as pork is transported to diverse destinations, the incorporation of dry ice pellets plays a pivotal role in maintaining the pork's chilled state throughout

its journey. Furthermore, dry ice pellets serve the additional purpose of preserving the pork's freshness during value-added processes like curing or smoking.

Recommended System PR350H OR PR750H These systems provide you with the ability to generate between 772 - 1,654 pounds (350 - 750 kg) of high-density dry ice pellets every hour. Both machines feature automatic die changers.

WINERIES Winemaking is truly an art form. During harvest, the best grapes are selected from the vineyard based on their ripeness. The exact time of harvest has a big impact on the flavor and characteristics of the wine.

Once the grapes are harvested, they are taken to the winery where they are stripped of leaves, branches, and any damaged grapes. They are then crushed to release the juice. In some cases, especially for white wines, the grapes are pressed to extract all of the juice.

PROTECT THE GRAPES FROM THE HEAT

PROTECT THE MUST FROM OXYGEN

MAINTAIN WINE BATCH CONSISTENCY

CHILLING The juice, now called "must," is transferred to fermentation tanks where yeast is added. The yeast converts the sugars in the must into alcohol. During this process, dry ice pellets are added to the top of the fermentation tanks. The dry ice creates a protective layer that keeps the must from coming into contact with oxygen in the air.

The wine is then aged in barrels or other containers before being bottled.

WINEMAKING Dry ice is added to the top of the fermentation tanks. As mentioned, dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is heavier than air, so it creates a protective layer against oxidation caused by air during the fermentation process.

Should I Produce Dry Ice Myself or Purchase It From The Open Market?

One of the most frequently asked questions regarding dry ice. Both options have their merits. The quantity needed plays a significant role, as does the potential benefits of just-in-time production.

MAKING YOUR OWN DRY ICE

At times, substantial labor savings can be achieved from no longer managing dry ice bins, while also freeing up additional space by eliminating the need for on-site storage of bins. Many factors contribute to the decision of whether to produce dry ice on-site.

DRY ICE AS A COST-EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO CO2 SNOW The CO2 snow horn is a widely used device in the meat industry and other food processing industries as a method to "flash freeze" product by covering it quickly with a layer of carbon dioxide "snow." Snow horns are easy to use and require little training for the personnel who use them. The cooling/freezing effect of the -109oF CO2 snow is immediate and used to rapidly freeze fresh meat and other similar products in the food industry.

However, for all the pros of using snow horns, there are three primary drawbacks.

CO2 SNOW HORNS REQUIRE APPROXIMATELY 70% MORE LIQUID CO2 COMPARED TO A COLD JET PELLETIZER A trial conducted at the premises of Cold Jet's Headquarters demonstrated that CO2 snow horns require approximately 70% more liquid CO2 compared to a Cold Jet Pelletizer, in order to produce an equivalent amount of solid CO2 dry ice. In certain instances, the snow horn may even necessitate 100% more liquid CO2 than a pelletizer.
