Edible Oil
Edible oils may be contaminated with unwanted natural and anthropogenic compounds, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), which are in turn removed with activated carbon.
Chemviron Carbon can supply special grades of high purity powdered and Granular activated carbon that provide excellent methods of edible oil purification. In addition the granular carbons can also be supplied in mobile service equipment and a service for recycling by thermal reactivation can be provided.
Chemviron Carbon have developed a number of Pulsorb powdered activated carbons that have been optimised for specific contaminant removal and also filterability. The carbon can be added on its own or mixed with bleaching earth for the treatment of edible oils such as:
- palm oil
- coconut oil
- sunflower oil
- soybean oil
- fish oil.
