Activated Bleaching Earth
Activated Bleaching Earth, also known as ‘wash clay’ is a type of clay that helps to remove the colours from the edible and non-edible oils. Bentonite – the raw material of activated bleaching earth is mined in India, rest of Asia, England and United States besides others.
This mineral-rich substance is used for its absorbing, bleaching and filtering properties. The activated bleaching earth is used for decolorizing and refining of the oils especially vegetable and other edible and non-edible oils.
