CO2 purification for natural spring carbon dioxide, food quality
We find carbonic acid everywhere nowadays: it is used as a propellant for care products, e.g. for deodorants or in fire extinguishers. In the plastics industry as well as in the food industry, CO2 is used as a cooling agent. It is an important component in sterile packaging and is also used in the treatment of waste water.
However, most people are familiar with carbon dioxide as a fizzy drink in mineral water and soft drinks. The main consumer of CO2 is the food and beverage industry. There is often a soda maker in the kitchen at home.
Natural spring carbon dioxide – in volcanic regions, it rises from the earth, which can then be combined with deep water to produce natural mineral water. Industrial production also plays a major role. The by-product CO2 is found after fermentation processes or in chemical manufacturing processes, e.g. in fertilizer production.
What all types of CO2 production have in common is the need for treatment. Use in the beverage industry? CO2 in food quality. ReiCat can do that too: our CO2 purification systems for the production of carbon dioxide, e.g. for mineral water, offer the perfect solution.
