How do you eliminate heat?

you can remove heat but cannot totally eliminate it. Ways to remove heat: * convection -- blow cooler air or dry ice over the object or place it inside an ice box * conduction -- put the object in cooler water * radiation -- leave it in a cooler surrounding The key word is 'cooler,' which means you can remove heat when you have a cooler medium to dump the heat.

How do I use dry ice in a cooler to keep regular ice and drinks cold for 48 hours?

You could just put the dry ice in the cooler and keep the cooler closed as much as possible. Don't seal it in an airtight way ... that would be bad, since as the dry ice sublimes it will build up gas pressure in the cooler. If you're lucky, it will just make opening it rather more exciting than usual, since the lid will probably pop open on its own as soon as you unlatch it. If you're unlucky, it could explode, or at least rupture. This may not be the most brilliant idea ever, though, because dry ice is quite a bit colder than regular water ice (about 110 degrees below zero on the Fahrenheit scale). Your drinks will almost certainly freeze solid at that temperature.
