1. Carbon dioxide is widely used in the food industry as an additive for expanded biscuits and soft drink manufacturing. It can effectively extend the shelf life of food while maintaining its stability.
Food-grade carbon dioxide usually requires 99.9% purity to ensure food safety and quality.
2. During gas shielded welding, carbon dioxide is used as a shielding gas to prevent the welding area from being oxidized and contaminated by air. This helps improve welding quality and efficiency.
Carbon dioxide burns at high temperatures to produce high-energy oxides to accelerate the welding process and is widely used in fields such as steel production and shipbuilding.
3. Carbon dioxide is used for oil field collection and reservoir fracturing to expel oil from the pores by forming bubbles in the pores of the rock. This method increases the production of offshore and onshore oil fields.
Because carbon dioxide is low-cost and easy to use, many oil companies adopt it to increase oil field production.
