Abstract

This paper explained about one of mechanism of snow dry ice cleaning by solubility parameter. The mechanism for the removal of non-polar organic residues utilizes liquid CO2 solvent properties while the dry ice are attach the surface. Solubility parameter value of liquid CO2 were estimated from temperature and momentum of snow dry ice stream. From our study, solubility parameters value of liquid carbon dioxide for cleaning process are between 16.3-17.1 MPa0.5 when using pressure for supplying carbon dioxide 48 bar temperature for supplying carbon dioxide 5 °C and pressure for supplying carbon dioxide 55 bar temperature for supplying carbon dioxide 5 10 and 15°C at distance from tip of nozzle 2 cm. Solubility parameters value of liquid carbon dioxide are close to solubility parameters value of non-polar organic solvent, which using for dissolve non-polar organic compound e.g., paraffin wax,  oil, lube oil. So, Snow dry ice cleaning can be cleaned non-polar organic residues.
