Liquid Carbondioxide

Liquid carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless and odorless liquid. Produced under high pressure, usually in industrial processes or during carbonate mining, it is used in many industrial and commercial applications.

Physical Properties
  • Colorless and Odorless: Liquid carbon dioxide is a colorless and odorless liquid.

  • Liquefaction at High Pressure: Carbon dioxide becomes liquid at a pressure above atmospheric pressure.

 

Production
  • Liquefaction of gaseous carbon dioxide: Carbon dioxide gas can be liquefied at high pressure and low temperatures. It is usually obtained in industrial processes or during carbonate mining.

 

Areas of Use
  • Food Industry: Carbon dioxide is used in food industry applications such as carbonation of beverages and production of frozen foods.

  • Chemical Industry: Carbon dioxide can be used as a solvent or reactant in chemical production.

  • Metallurgy: Carbon dioxide can be used in metallurgical processes.

  • Medical Applications: It can be used in refrigeration and surgical procedures.

  • Fire Extinguishing: Carbon dioxide is a gas used in fire extinguishing systems.

 

Security
  • High Pressure Storage: Liquid carbon dioxide is a high-pressure gas and should therefore be handled with care during storage and handling.

  • Ventilation: Good ventilation is important if large quantities are used because vaporization of this gas can lower oxygen levels.

Liquid carbon dioxide is a versatile substance used in a wide range of industries. However, its properties, such as high pressure and low temperature, require safe storage and handling.
