CO 2 uses

Uses of CO2: Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a versatile chemical compound with a wide range of applications in different industrial sectors. It´s use plays an essential role in processes and product quality. In this article, we explore CO2 applications in the industry and how storage tanks and transport equipment are essential to solve storage needs.

Uses and industrial applications for CO2 storage

Having CO2 storage capacity is important in the industry that uses it to guarantee supply and not stop the production.

  • Food and Beverage Industry: CO2 storage tanks are essential in the production of carbonated beverages, using CO2 to carbonate these drinks. It also used in food preservation and refrigerated warehousing for perishables, ensuring the quality and freshness of the products.

  • Metallurgical Industry: CO2 is use in metallurgy as a protective gas for welding and cutting, playing an essential role in the manufacturing of high-quality metal products.

  • Healthcare and Laboratory Equipment: CO2 participates in a range medical application, including cryotherapy, anesthesia, and laboratory testing. The CO2 availability is critical to make certain the uninterrupted operation of these systems.

  • Agricultural Industry: different companies use CO2 storage tanks in agriculture to enrich the atmosphere in greenhouses, promoting plant growth. This results in more abundant and higher-quality crops.

  • Chemical and Petrochemical Processes: CO2 is use in a variety of chemical and petrochemical processes, including the urea production and other chemicals.


    Here are some features of CO2 Tanks that which can be used in different industries, CO2 tanks can be of three types:
  1. CO2 Vertical double-walled storage tanks. (For more information, visit https://tatsa.mx/en/carbon-dioxide-vacuum-storage-tank/

  2. CO2 horizontal storage tanks with polyurethane insulation. (For more information, visit https://tatsa.mx/en/carbon-dioxide-vacuum-storage-tank/

  3. Tanks for CO2 transport. (For more information, visit

    Containers must comply with the normative, such as vertical double-walled storage tanks. Inner vessel is design according to ASME code, section VIII, Div 1 latest edition, "U” stamp. External tank is design according to CGA-341, latest edition (non-stamped tank). Horizontal storage tanks with polyurethane insulation are design according to ASME code, section VIII, Div 1 latest edition, “U” stamp. In the case of semitrailers using for CO2 transport are design according to ASME code, section VIII, Div. 1, latest edition, NOM 057 SCT2 / 2003, and DOT / MC-331 (in accordance with each company's requirements). Additionally, we have varied sizes for vertical tanks from 6 to 75 tons, horizontal storage tanks from 100 to 600 tons and semitrailers from 19, 24, and 27 tons, including the 21 tons DOT tank to circulate in the USA (United States of America). Finally, we would like to tell you that we can also manufacture bobtails (Truck tanks) with smaller capacities such as 5, 10 tons or we can adapt to the client's needs which allows us to adapt to the needs of each industrial process.
