Activated Bleaching Earth
Activated Bleaching Earth is a specially treated clay used extensively for refining and decolorizing edible oils, mineral oils, and fats. Through acid activation, its surface area and adsorption capacity are significantly increased, making it highly effective at removing impurities, color pigments, gums, and trace metals. At Gajanan Clay Chem LLP, we produce high-performance Activated Bleaching Earth with tailored properties to suit diverse refining needs in edible oil, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
