Liquid nitrogen or dry ice: which one to use for cooling
Nitrogen is colder, dry ice holds more cold per kilogram. A side-by-side table, the tasks each one is right for, and the safety difference people forget.
How to choose tank volume, vaporizer capacity and configuration for a real consumption profile.

Equipment selection
Nitrogen is colder, dry ice holds more cold per kilogram. A side-by-side table, the tasks each one is right for, and the safety difference people forget.

Equipment selection
A pelletizer turns less than half of the liquid it receives into dry ice — the rest flashes off as gas. What that means for the raw material bill, the tank size and the pressure at the inlet.

Equipment selection
Carbonation is only a third of the CO₂ a brewery uses. Consumption per hectolitre, where the rest disappears, the purity the product demands, and how to size the tank and vaporizer.

Equipment selection
Pure CO₂ is the cheapest shielding gas and the one that spatters most. Where the argon mix pays for itself, how much gas a welding post actually uses, and when a workshop outgrows cylinders.

Equipment selection
A rented tank looks free until you read the gas price attached to it. A comparison of the three ownership models, the numbers that decide between them, and what «turnkey» has to include.

Equipment selection
One supplier quotes per cylinder, another per kilogram, a third per cubic metre of gas. Conversion tables and the four traps that make the cheapest-looking offer the most expensive.

Equipment selection
CO₂ enrichment raises yield only if the gas arrives steadily and at the right temperature. The vaporizer decides both, and in a Ukrainian winter the choice is not obvious.

Equipment selection
A 40-litre cylinder does not hold 40 kg. Here is how much CO₂ each size really carries, how many cylinders your consumption burns through, and the point where a tank starts to cost less.

Equipment selection
The question comes up when cylinders have become expensive but a stationary tank still looks like a big commitment. The answer is decided by three numbers, not by preference.

Equipment selection
An oversized tank ties up money and vents product through the safety valve. An undersized one stops the line when the tanker is late. Here is how to find the middle.
