What is a CO2 cryogenic pipe?

CO2 cryogenic piping is a special piping system that is mainly used to transport cryogenic liquid carbon dioxide. This piping system has the following characteristics:

Low temperature resistance

Since liquid CO2 is very low at room temperature (around -78°C), CO2 cryogenic pipes need to have excellent low temperature resistance to ensure that there is no rupture or leakage during transportation.

Pressure-resistant

Liquid CO2 still has a high pressure at low temperatures, so the piping system needs to be able to withstand this pressure to ensure safe delivery.

Tightness

CO2 cryogenic pipelines need to have good sealing performance to prevent liquid CO2 from leaking during transportation and polluting the environment.
When designing and constructing CO2 cryogenic pipelines, a variety of factors need to be considered, such as pipe material, pipe diameter, pipe length, conveying pressure, conveying temperature, etc. Commonly used pipe materials include stainless steel, alloy steel, etc., which have good low temperature resistance, pressure resistance and corrosion resistance.

CO2 cryogenic pipes have applications in many fields, such as food processing, beverage production, fire fighting, etc. In food processing, liquid carbon dioxide can be used to freeze food and prevent damage to the food structure, in beverage production, liquid carbon dioxide is an important raw material for making carbonated beverages, and in the field of fire fighting, liquid carbon dioxide can be used as a fire extinguishing agent.

In general, CO2 cryogenic piping is a high-performance, high-demand piping system that requires professional design and manufacturing technology to ensure its safe and reliable operation.
