Medical Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
Carbon Dioxide is a colourless, odourless, non flammable gas that is used for
various medical purposes. It is formed by the burning of hydrocarbon with air, the
fermentation of liquids and as a by-product from chemical processes. It doesn’t
sustain life. At -78.5°C it freezes to form Carbon Dioxide snow.
