About Cool Clean

Cool Clean is the Leader in CO₂ Technology

Cool Clean Technologies designs and manufactures CO₂ based technologies for a wide range of applications. Cool Clean was founded in 2001 and established headquarters in Eagan, MN. Cool Clean’s products use CO₂ in all phases for cleaning, surface preparation, machine tool cooling, and CO₂ extraction.

The Cool Clean team has developed and marketed a variety of CO₂ cleaning and cooling technologies, with installations worldwide.

Today, Cool Clean’s CO₂ technology is used in many industries such as automotive paint pretreatment, hard disk drive, medical device manufacturing, aerospace, and electronics component manufacturing.

Mission Statement: To apply our innovative CO₂technologies to complex precision cleaning, extraction & cooling applications in order to improve productivity, quality & safety in an environmentally friendly way.

Our processes have four important attributes:

Dry

Processes utilizing CO₂ are waterless and leave behind no residue. Parts removed from the system come out clean and dry.

No Byproducts

CO₂ technology doesn’t produce any byproducts (spent solvents, rinse water, coolants). No waste disposal required.

Energy Efficient

Processes are frequently far more energy efficient than conventional alternatives.

Eco-Friendly & Environmentally Safe

Reduces environmental waste at the source by modifying the production process. All processes use recycled CO₂ and therefore doesn’t contribute to greenhouse gases.

What about the CO₂?

Cool Clean’s products and processes use recycled CO₂, which is obtained by capturing CO₂ that is produced as a byproduct of natural and industrial processes. The recycled CO₂ effectively replaces industrial processing agents such as solvents, aqueous treatments, and machining coolants. Replacing these processes conserves natural and human resources such as water, oil, energy, capital, and labor.

Producing, transporting, and consuming less of these processing agents eliminates environmental pollution and waste byproducts such as solid and liquid wastes (e.g., filters, sludge, wastewater, spent oils, coolants), volatile organic compounds, and greenhouse gases.
