The CO2 Gas Cylinder
![Page 6: Revolutionizing the global carbonated beverages industry](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a61a0c1a28abbb098b4654/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Since 1902, the CO2 gas cylinder has remained virtually the same…
“…Harrisburg Steel Corporation (Harrisburg Pipe)
installed two new furnaces and used the plate process to produce America’s first seamless gas cylinders in 1902…”

In 1904, the gas cylinder really took off…
…”Two years later, a prominently placed carbon dioxide cylinder would further advance the cylinder business, when the Anheuser-Busch Brewery displayed a carbon dioxide cylinder from Harrisburg Steel Corporation to pump draft beer at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis. Beer on tap became so popular that many saloons were renamed taprooms—giving carbon dioxide cylinders a starring role in watering holes across the nation.” *

Carbon Dioxide gas
is a by product of
many petrochemical
industries
Where it is captured,
cleaned and liquefied
![Page 12: Revolutionizing the global carbonated beverages industry](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a61a0c1a28abbb098b4654/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Liquefied CO2 is
transported to
Industrial Gas
Suppliers
Bottles are
professionally filled
at site centric plants
![Page 13: Revolutionizing the global carbonated beverages industry](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a61a0c1a28abbb098b4654/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Transporting CO2
cylinders need to
comply with USDOT
Regulations
![Page 14: Revolutionizing the global carbonated beverages industry](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a61a0c1a28abbb098b4654/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Draught Beer has Cooling needs and issues
that Soft Drink dispensing does not
have…
![Page 15: Revolutionizing the global carbonated beverages industry](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a61a0c1a28abbb098b4654/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
In the Draught Beer
industry, a constant
challenge centers on
temperature issues and the
time, energy and effort
needed to serve a Draught
Beer at 38*F (optimal)
“Our mission is to
create innovative
solutions to enhance
the Draught Beer
Experience for the beer
lover – brewer,
distributor and retailer
by ensuring optimal
preservation and
dispensing of the
finest form of Beer –
Draught Beer.”

The higher the beer temperature - the higher the CO2 pressure needed to dispense.
The higher the CO2 pressure - the higher the foaming.
The higher the foaming - the higher amount of wasted beer.
Carbonation Scale

World Cup 2006
It was estimated that nearly 40% of all Draught Beer could not be dispensed at Stadium Concession Stands and Outdoor Venues due to the hot weather in Germany at the month long FIFA World Cup tournament
What should have been this…
May have led to this…(kidding)
