Food grade carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless gas used primarily in the beverage industry for carbonation. It is produced through natural fermentation processes or can be sourced from industrial production methods. This gas is essential for creating the bubbles in soft drinks, sparkling water, and other carbonated beverages, enhancing both flavor and mouthfeel. Additionally, it serves as a preservative by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and molds.
