It displaces regular air, too. Do you remember Lake Nyos, in Africa? Lemme find us a link here. This shit blew me away, especially seeing the dead foliage in the CO2 sinks.It also displaces oxygen seamaiden,so you can suffocate if you have a room full of the co2.Alot of fire fighters die every year because of this.
Well, that much we knew, but CO2 fog, being very cold, appears to cause some condensation of atmospheric humidity. CO2 fog thus seems to wet anything it touches. We were on the topic of the water holding capacity of N vs something else and it simply occurred to me that the last time I used CO2 fog as a theatrical effect, the floors and objects on it collected some of this condensed moisture. Seems to me that the white, visible element of a CO2 fog is actually water vapour as CO2 is itself odourless and colourless.Ok, the vapor that comes off of dry ice is CO2. This is why it falls, as CO2 is definitely heavier than air. I suspected as much, but didn't want to make a definitive statement.
Humans can tolerate 30,000ppm for 15 mins without a respirator. Firefighters usually have a breathing apparatus when on the fireground, so I would be very interested to see actuarial data on firefighter deaths from a CO2 atmosphere.It also displaces oxygen seamaiden,so you can suffocate if you have a room full of the co2.Alot of fire fighters die every year because of this.
That'd be 'Dewars'i used to work with liquid nitrogen. i would spend all day filling doers.
Sure, I can see that kind of hazard with any odourless, colourless gas in a confined space.if you had a leak in one and didn't know it and it was in an enclosed room and you walk in, you can die before you know it.
Of course it can.(CO2) displaces regular air, too.
Well, all we need is some sort of gaseous medium that will shift the water molecules off the buds. Air manages it and it is 70-odd % N.My friend thinks that the water vapor "locked" onto the CO2 vapor would be negligible. But, he mentioned what you did, the... oh jeez, what did he call it? Interface I think, he said that any water held in the air would be brought out via condensation due to the cold.
Thanks for the linkage mon. I think freeze drying might be hard to control, but it's definitely worth some consideration.
cc..cryo...c..ccc. oh, fuck.Ok, I can say "cryodessication", but the other word gets me tongue-tied, lyophilization.
Yep, water sublimes!Hey! Your third link explains the shrinking ice cubes in a frost-free freezer, yes? Or am I misunderstanding how it works?
get on it.Wouldn't liquid N make it super crumbly, though? I'm thinking of how efficient our new LG fridge is, and I can set the freezer to.. jeez, I think something like -24F. That's some cold (I keep it at 7F, that's plenty cold enough for home).
D'OH! I am in need of mature buds. None of the girls is ready just yet, nor is Time Out Tranny. I did take some pix, but to me they're extremely unimpressive.get on it.
I'm not sure there's enough water in the resin trichs to cause that effect, but I am fairly confident that a wet bud that was frozen then thawed would come out a floppy mess, like frozen then thawed spinach.
