Zero Waste Technologies

SCE’s dry ice blasting is a fast, easy and cost-effective cleaning method that uses high-velocity dry ice pellets to clean surfaces without damaging equipment or creating new waste streams.

Because of the temperature difference between the dry ice particles (-109°Fahrenheit) and the surface being treated, thermal shock occurs during the blasting process. This breaks down the bond between the substrate and the contaminant to be removed from it. The dry ice vaporizes on impact, so no secondary waste stream is created.

A number of industries worldwide have discovered the advantages of this precision cleaning process. Applications range from heavy slag removal to delicate semiconductor and circuit board cleaning.
