It's dry ice not fog, essentially it's solid-state co2 that evaporates. I used to use this stuff all the time when I did techno raves and underground parties back in the 90's. It looks frikkin cool, and I would presume that's why they use it.
You can also use it for freezing fresh fish to -20 degrees celsius to kill off the parasites before using the fish for sushi :-)
- astine 17y agoWhere does it say that it's dry ice? That seems like an extremely inefficient way to cool a data center if that's what their doing with it. It would need to be replaced frequently. If it's just for show, it seems like a waste for a DC kept deep underground that no one ever sees. Anyway, I'm not certain that it wouldn't be harmful to tape (which I'm guessing they don't have, so I suppose it's a non-issue.
- mixmax 17y agoI've just seen a lot of dry-ice in my lifetime, and this looks a lot like it :-) They probably don't use it for actual cooling but more for showing off. Though I'm not certain I don't think it would be harmful to tape, after all it's just C02.
- Periodic 17y agoWater vapor tends to rise, CO2 will sink. This stuff is hugging the ground like CO2 is known to do. Mist on the ground is usually only caused when water is evaporating off that surface.
