The History of Dry Ice

First a scientific discovery, now a household item Dry ice was discovered by the French inventor, Adrien – Jean – Pierre Thilorier in 1835. At first, he thought what he saw was snow, but later it was clarified that it was in fact solidified carbon dioxide. The discovery is thought to have been accidental while Thilorier was working on an experiment. He worked at a post office in Paris and is the same man who also invented an oil lamp and gas compressor. Charles – Saint – Ange Thilorier was initially believed to be the “Thilorier” who made the discovery of dry ice. However, this confusion was cleared up in an article which was published in 1952.

The Most Common Dry Ice Uses:

There are countless uses for dry ice. Some are rather creative, while others are much more essential and practical for certain industries.

In stage productions, dry ice pellets can be used in hot water to create a flowing fog effect.

Chefs often combine dry ice into the presentation of their dishes to turn an ordinary meal into an impressive work of art. Many hunters put dry ice blocks in cooler boxes to keep meat fresh on hunting trips that last a few days in the field without being able to refrigerate meat.

Fishermen in towns such as Port Elizabeth rely on dry ice to keep bait fresh, especially on sunny days out in the ocean or perhaps on shore.

Industries which rely a lot on the use of dry ice are mechanical, as well as civil engineering.
