Activated Carbon for the Treatment of Sugar Solutions

For the treatment of sugar solutions chemical activated carbon with good adsorption capacity or high efficient steam activated carbon with optimal price/performance relation are used for decolorization. Suitable activated carbon types have a neutral ph value to assure that the undesirable inverse sugar is formed.

Granular activated carbon can be used in a fixed bed filter, which offers a continously process and enviromental protected reactivation of the spend activated carbon.

DC offers suitable activated carbon types, which meet the requirements of the Food Chemicals Codex (FCC).
