Activated Bleaching Earth for purification of Edible oils
Bleaching earths are often regarded as salt of the earth.Before Edible oils can be safely.Consumed, they have to be processed in order to remove impurities, both for commercial and health purposes.
A process known as bleaching involves the use of bleaching earths or clays. The term itself is misleading as colour removal is not the most important purpose of the bleaching process. Vegetable oils contain contaminates that adversely affect the performance, appearance and taste of the oil. In order for it to be used in edible applications, the oil must meet high quality standards that require the removal of various impurities.
The bleaching process essentially removes some colour from the oil; reduces how much chlorophyll and carotinoids the oil contains; removes soap, gums and trace metals; and decomposes oxidation products. Bleaching is performed prior to other processing
What are bleaching earths?
Oils are bleached using a powdered, surfactant material. Simply put, the powder is mixed with water, and then added to the oil where they absorb unwanted impurities before they are removed from the oil again, taking the impurities with them.
Bleaching earths are generally composed of up to three types of clay minerals: bentonite, attapulgite and fullers earth The minerals act as absorbers with capacity being dependent on mineralogical structure and properties, such as surface area, particle size distribution, porosity and surface activity.
Bentonites or fullers earth are a soft stone with the capacity to absorb substances dissolved in water and other liquids. The minerals have been formed over time due to the natural adaptation of volcanic ash
Activated clays are the most utilized minerals and considered very efficient and economical sorbents according to their chemical and physical properties. Clays are enjoying rapid popularity in the petroleum refining industry for the various processes such as adsorption and separation. Removal of many components such as sulfur, heavy metals, colors and separation of different hydrocarbon groups of crude oil and petroleum fractions can be carried out by clay adsorption. The using of clay as adsorbent in several petroleum refining processes such as desulphurization, deasphalting, waste oil recovery, bleaching, corrosion reduction, heavy metals removal and other. One of the simplest, easiest and efficient separation processes used in different industries is adsorption
Results show that different types of clay are obtainable and used in many applications. Clay adsorption can be enhanced the treatment and finishing of crude oils and petroleum fractions through several modifications such as metals impregnation, acid and thermal activations. Fullers earth clays promote the highest adsorption capacity to remove sulfur and a high bleaching potential and effective in decolorization and neutralization any petroleum oil.Clays promote the highest removal efficiency of Ni and V from crude oil. Additionally, the adsorption pre-treatment affects the reduction in corrosion yields and the corrosion rate.
Bentonite Activated Bleaching Earth is a highly effective adsorbent clay used in refining and purifying edible oils, fats, and industrial oils. Known for its excellent decolorizing and impurity-removing properties, it ensures superior clarity and quality in the final product.

We are a reliable industrial source for availing Bleaching Earth . Bleaching Earths have been used in the refinement of edible oils and fats since the end of the 19th century. Naturally-active Bleaching Earth has been used under the name of Fuller’s Earth since about 1880. Bentonite can be transformed into highly active Bleaching Earths by treatment with acid. We source Bleaching Earth from one of the leading producers, with manufacturing capacities in India, Malaysia, and Belgium. They use the unique filter less technology to produce superior and efficient Bleaching Earth for the Edible Oil Industry.
