Apparatus for cleaning a moving pallet and components carried thereby. The apparatus includes a processing system that employs the moving pallet. An environmental cleaning station is provided through which the pallet moves. The cleaning station includes a recirculating blower system and a high efficiency particulate air filter. A ducting system or warm air system may be provided for supplying purified air, inert gas, or warm air to eliminate condensation. A carbon dioxide jet spray cleaning system is provided that has jet spray nozzles disposed within the cleaning station that are coupled by way of a manifold to a liquid carbon dioxide tank that supplies liquid carbon dioxide to the jet spray nozzles. The jet spray nozzles generate a carbon dioxide snow spray that impinges on the moving pallet to clean it along with the components it carries.
