TEAM
Successful Clean Manufacturing Solution Development is a Team Effort!
Over the past 38 years our CO2 Powered team has innovated and adapted CO2 CleanTech to meet manufacturing needs for better economy, higher performance, higher capacity, among many other imperatives.
This collective experience is uniquely broad based and specialized in CO2 CleanTech. Our CO2 Powered team are change agents, inventors, and entrepreneurs who have developed and implemented advanced CO2 clean manufacturing technology within and on behalf of leading manufacturing companies worldwide.
Clean Manufacturing Solution Development and Implementation Tactics:
- Systematically understand the manufacturing (or sustainability) problem.
- Understand the job needed to get done.
- Predict future manufacturing and sustainability needs.
- Ensure that the Clean Manufacturing Solution solves the critical manufacturing (or sustainability) problem effectively today but also can be adapted to future needs.
- Validate that the Clean Manufacturing Solution solves the current manufacturing (or sustainability) problem with recovered cash flow and improved manufacturing sustainability.

Mr. Jackson began his career in 1979 at the bench analyzing pollution in wastes generated and discharged by industrial manufacturers and municipal wastewater treatment plants. Following graduation from college and working as group head of precision cleaning and contamination control at Hughes Aircraft Company, Technology Support Division, he developed and was awarded patents for new cleaning technologies based on environmentally-safe chemistries (CO2, H2O2, O3, Bio-based) for use during the manufacture of advanced aerospace products such as communications satellites and orbital weapon systems. While launching his first CO2 business in 1991, Mr. Jackson worked as an environmental engineering consultant, helping manufacturers reduce and treat regulated waste by-products generated by their production operations.
Over the past 38 years, Mr. Jackson’s hands-on and creative problem-solving approach has resulted in the development and implementation of cost- and performance-effective clean manufacturing solutions for both large and small manufacturers. Companies have benefited financially with improved product quality, greater manufacturing productivity, reduced material requirements, lower energy, and decreased regulatory burdens. Others have benefited from the development of entirely new clean manufacturing products and services for new markets and applications. These businesses have improved the environmental quality and safety for their employees, customers and communities.
Mr. Jackson holds a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from California State University and attended Graduate School at California Lutheran University. He has been issued more than 50 patents worldwide.
WHAT DO OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
The purpose of surface cleaning is to remove deposits that might cause damage through abrasion, absorption of acidic gases, or serve as medium for mould growth.
Simple dry cleaning of surfaces using erasers and sponges requires contact with surface which might also cause alteration of surface properties (flattening, eraser residues). With respect to basic requirement to avoid material degradation an alternative non-contact method might be CO2 snow jet cleaning performed using a Precision Spray Cleaning Pen (SnoPen SP 2000, Cleanlogix).
Artificialy soiled samples of wood-based and cotton-based paper were cleaned by the CO2 snow jet with a carbon dioxide flow rate of 3.0 g/s and a nitrogen flow rate of 1.4 l/s and by the nitrogen jet at the same flow rate. Paralel samples were cleaned by traditional mechanical cleaning methods. The effect of treatment was evaluated by optical microscopy.
The results showed that the CO2 snow jet cleaning effectively removed particles in the lower layers of the paper surface, including interfiber spaces.
The CO2 snow jet cleaning compared with the mechanical dry cleaning showed similar effectiveness without any adverse effects on the paper surface. It was proved that the CO2 snow technique is a suitable method for cleaning common types of paper materials.
As a company that produces products of the highest quality, CICOIL chooses Clean Imagineering for the following reasons.
- Reliability: Clean Imagineering has proven itself by consistently delivering products of the highest quality;
- Flexibility: Clean Imagineering friendly staff is very willing to work with us to tailor their processes/procedures to meet our stringent requirements;
- Cost: Clean Imagineering is able to process larger batches than their competitor, therefore providing significant cost savings for CICOIL;
- Location: This not only saves time and money on shipping, but also allows CICOIL to support our local economy;
- Knowledge: When faced with a new and particularly hard to remove contaminant, we were able to draw upon Clean Imagineering's vast experience and knowledge to provide us with a solution.
