Introduction
Carbon dioxide gas is one of the by-products of the alcohol production plant, which is extracted from the fermentation process, and thus it is placed in the food grade category, which is widely used in the food industry, especially in the production of carbonated drinks.
The carbon dioxide gas production line offers its product to the market with the use of modern knowledge and technology and with a nominal annual capacity of 7,500 tons.
Razi company offers its product under the brand name "Nab Bio CO2".
Profile of carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide (with the chemical formula CO2) is obtained from the combination of carbon with oxygen, and it is actually the oxidation of carbon by oxygen and can be created from the burning of coal and organic materials. In other words, this gas is created when carbon is completely burned and the number of covalent bonds in it is 4. It is also produced in the process of extracting lime from Ore.
Other characteristics of carbon dioxide include the following:
- Carbon dioxide molecule is linear and central.
- At low concentrations, carbon dioxide gas is colorless and odorless.
- Carbon dioxide is soluble in water.
- In very high concentrations, carbon dioxide has sharp and acidic smell.
- Carbon dioxide is used by food, oil and chemical industries.
What is carbon dioxide produced from?
Carbon dioxide is usually obtained by burning coal and organic matter in the presence of oxygen. Also, carbon dioxide gas is produced by fermentation of concentrated liquids or respiration of organisms and plants. Fossil fuels can also be one of the sources of carbon dioxide production.
How is carbon dioxide produced in the Razi complex?
We at Razi Factory adopt technical methods and comply with international standards to produce carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide gas is produced through the fermentation of sugar and alcohol production, which will be of very high quality. The CO2 gas obtained and produced through fermentation is exactly in accordance with the standards of the food industry and is used in the production of basic food ingredients or carbonated beverages. Our produced carbon dioxide is of high quality and has a wide range of applications in the carbonated beverage industry, as well as in coloring sugar and transporting frozen food materials.
Uses of Carbon Dioxide
Carbon dioxide has various applications that are used in special positions according to its type and quality. Among the most common uses of carbon dioxide are the following:
Production of all kinds of carbonated drinks
Raising color and dyeing in the sugar and candy industries.
Production of dry ice for perishable foods
Production of urea carbonate and bicarbonate
Production of sodium silicate
Can be used in casting industries
Use in molding industries
