A customer tested Coulson Ice Blast's portable ice blasting system to decontaminate rail cars used to transport contaminated soil. Two tests found that ice blasting could remove surface contamination to meet regulatory standards, cleaning a 1 square meter area in 10 minutes and an entire rail car in around 6 hours. Previous methods like high-pressure water blasting and grit blasting were less effective or more hazardous and time-consuming. Based on the successful tests, the customer is considering purchasing two ice blasting units from Coulson Ice Blast.
