11. Application scope of dry ice in nuclear industry
If traditional cleaning methods such as water, sand blasting or chemical decontaminating agent are used to clean equipment in nuclear industry, media such as water, sand blasting or chemical decontaminating agent are also contaminated by radioactive elements, so it takes time and money to treat these media which are polluted for the second time. However, with the dry ice cleaning process, dry ice particles are directly sprayed to the cleaned object, which instantly sublimates, and there is no problem of secondary pollution. What needs to be treated is only the cleaned wastes with nuclear pollution and scale.
11. Application scope of dry ice in beauty industry
Some dermatologists use dry ice to treat acne, which is called cryotherapy. Because it will slightly freeze the skin.
There is a kind of frozen material for treating acne, which is mixed with ground dry ice and ethyl ketone, and sometimes mixed with some sulfur. Liquid nitrogen and solid dry ice can also be used as cryotherapy materials. Cryotherapy can reduce inflammation. Some time ago, the news reported that Liu Xiang used this cryotherapy to treat acne on his face. This method can reduce the generation of acne scars, but it is not used to remove scars.

Symptoms and treatment measures of frostbite:
Definition of frostbite
Frostbite refers to that a certain part of the body is exposed to a cold environment for a long time, and its skin and tissues are damaged.
Symptoms:
The skin will feel very cold and turn a little red before frostbite.
The skin will lose its color first, but when frostbite gradually forms, it will turn white or grayish in yellow, or white with spots.
blisters may occur. It may hurt a little, or you may not know that you have frostbite at all
The initial symptom of frostbite is tingling, followed by numbness and stiffness, and the affected part is pale; At this time, if it is warmed up, it can be completely recovered. If the initial chilblain is not treated, it will progress to superficial chilblain. At this time, the skin and subcutaneous tissue have died, and the skin is still pale or slightly gray, and it feels cold but soft. After thawing, it will be red and painful, and form a big blister like a second-degree burn after one to several days; After a few days, the blisters dry to form a black eschar, which will eventually be replaced by new skin if it is not complicated with infection.
Treatment measures for frostbite:
Move to a warm place, and keep the affected part in warm and dry air. Remove the binding substance to prevent it from being pulled out when swelling occurs. Keep it in gradually adjusted warm water (38.8~41.5 degrees) for heat preservation
Do not expose it to cold again, raise the affected part to relieve pain and swelling, then wrap the affected part with clean gauze and send it to the hospital for treatment. The purpose of first aid is to restore the cold-bound body fluids to normal. Therefore, if we can warm the area around the affected part, it can be cured soon. It is forbidden to directly soak the affected part in hot water or bake it with fire, which will aggravate frostbite. Because massage can cause it, remember not to do massage on the affected part.
Caution-Do not massage, bake, or puncture blisters to prevent infection of the affected part.
