Food & Beverage

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is used as a key cryogenic agent in cooling, chilling and freezing applications — protecting the taste and texture of your food products by maintaining proper temperature control. CO₂ also reduces the need for preservatives in packaged products, and is an essential ingredient in carbonated beverages.

Healthcare

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) USP is used for insufflations and is often combined with oxygen or air as a respiratory stimulant to promote deep breathing.

Respiratory Therapy & Pulmonary Function Testing

Oil & Gas

It is well known in the oil industry that carbon dioxide can be applied to your reservoir as a tertiary oil recovery method. We can provide CO₂ infectivity testing, pilot applications and full-field projects. We also provide CO₂ services for energized fluid fracturing (fracing) in conventional reservoirs for both long-reach horizontal and vertical wells.

Washing

Water & Wastewater Treatment

A safe alternative to mineral acids, carbon dioxide (CO₂) replaces chemicals used in pH reduction — lowering costs and improving plant safety and flexibility. 

pH Control

Welding & Metal Fabrication

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is most often mixed with argon as a shielding gas used to prevent atmospheric contamination of molten metal in electric arc welding processes.
