Quality

Our company is associated with DNV-GL for Total Quality Management system – ISO 9001 and Food safety Systems – FSSC 22000 for continuous improvement in the systems and process conforming to the Food and ISBT standards to meet our customer requirements. Our plants are also approved by Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) to supply food grade products to our customers. Our feed gas and final product are also analysed as per the ISBT standards/specifications at accredited labs in US. We are committed to manufacture Liquid/Gaseous/Solid Carbon dioxide in accordance to the Food and Beverage standards. Our company has the right systems/processes and lab equipments in place to monitor our product continuously in the manufacturing facilities to ensure that the Carbon dioxide we manufacture conforms to ISBT standards and specifications.

Safety

Handling:

The temperature of Liquid CO2 is extremely cold at -20 to -28 °C and should be handled with extreme care and with protective gloves. Prolong exposure of Liquid CO2 with skin can cause severe skin damage or frostbite similar to a burn. Prolonged exposure also makes it difficult to withdraw from skin contact in a safe manner.

Storage:

Liquid CO2 should always be stored in PUF Insulated/Vacuum Insulated tanks. The storage system of Liquid CO2 should be be approved by PESO (Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation). All storage vessels to have safety release valves to ensure that the pressure build up in the vessel is note more than the design pressure. Gaseous CO2 is stored in cylinders of varying capacities. The cylinders should be tested by competent person/company approved by PESO. All cylinder filling stations should be approved by PESO.

Ventilation:

Liquid/Gaseous CO2 in a closed room can pose a danger of hypercapnia because of excess levels of Carbon dioxide in the breathing air. It should be always exposed to open air.

Transportation:

Liquid CO2 is transported through mobile tankers from one place to another. All mobile tankers should be approved by PESO. All storage vessels in the mobile tankers to have safety release valves to ensure that the pressure build up in the vessel is note more than the design pressure.

Handling:

The temperature of Dry Ice is extremely cold at -78 °C and should be handled with extreme care and with protective gloves. Prolong exposure of dry ice with skin can cause severe skin damage or frostbite similar to a burn. Prolonged exposure also makes it difficult to withdraw from skin contact in a safe manner.

Storage:

Dry ice should always be stored in an insulated container. The container should be such that it is not completely airtight as dry ice sublimes into Carbon dioxide gas directly, it can expand and the pressure build up can rupture the packing.

Ventilation:

As dry ice sublimes into large quantity of carbon dioxide gas, it can pose a danger of hypercapnia because of excess levels of Carbon dioxide in the breathing air. Dry ice should always be exposed to open air in a very well ventilated environment.

Disposal:

Unwrap and leave it at room temperature in a well-ventilated area. It will sublimate from a solid to a gas.
