The Cryogenic Process Explained
Cryogenics is the science of rapidly cooling gasses to achieve super cool temperatures of -321° F. By cooling gasses like hydrogen to a liquid or solid state, system operators can create specific environments with specialized manufacturing, generate smoky effects in dry ice machines, and offer trendy food processing capabilities.
To produce cryogenic materials at very low temperatures, systems can use four common techniques in the cryogenic process:
-
Heat conduction
-
Evaporative Cooling
-
Joule-Thomson effect
-
Adiabatic demagnetization
By applying these principles in a controlled environment, operators can cool gaseous materials into liquid and solid forms. Then, the materials can be stored for later use or immediately introduced into manufacturing, medical, or consumer-facing applications.
What Is Cryogenics?
The term cryogenics comes from the Greek word "Kryos," or cold. Cryogenics itself is the applied study of lowering temperatures and assessing the effects on materials. Material scientists experiment to determine how supercool temperatures change the properties of liquefied and solidified gas materials, their potential applications, and how to lower temperatures even further.
At The Cryo Group, we design and develop cryogenic systems for commercial and industrial applications. This includes supplying businesses with dry ice and cryogenic materials, installing cryogenic systems at work sites for the independent production of cryogenic materials, and more.
Cryogenics and Its Applications
Cryogenic engineering offers endless potential. Some of the most popular applications for the systems and services we provide include:
Manufacturing
Large-scale and niche manufacturers can use cryogenics to achieve highly controlled freezing temperatures at key stages during the production process:
-
Aerospace: The cryogenic process can produce liquid gasses used for fuel to launch satellites. Liquid gasses also produce environments for research and experimentation in space-equivalent conditions.
-
Automotive: Automotive manufacturers can use cryogenics as cold-shrink technology. They can shrink components slightly to fit them into complex configurations; as the temperatures return to normal, the components grow back to their original size and lock together without needing mechanical fasteners or welds.
-
Electronic: Manufacturers can use cold shrink technology to produce incredibly small and fine electronic assemblies.
-
Entertainment: Consumer-facing businesses like event venues and specialty restaurants use dry ice and other cryogenic materials to produce smoke for concerts or haunted houses and to produce foods like ice cream.
-
Food and beverage: Flash freezing can preserve produce with minimal disruption, leading to consumer-facing produce that is virtually identical to fresh produce. Processing facilities can also use cryogenics to safely package and seal food in a microbe-free environment.
-
Medical: Liquefied gasses like nitrogen are used to preserve tissue with minimal damage. It can even be used as a direct treatment for surgical procedures.
Organizations in these niches can produce supercool materials directly on-site with our custom solutions.
