Activated carbon is widely used for decolorization in the food industry. Its porous structure and high specific surface area enable it to effectively adsorb pigments and other impurities, thereby purifying the product. The following are some specific applications and principles of activated carbon in food decolorization:

Application areas

Sugar products: In the manufacture of syrups, sucrose and glucose, activated carbon is often used to remove impurities from raw materials or processing, which helps to improve the transparency and purity of the product.

Plant extracts: In the process of extracting plant pigments, natural flavors or drugs, activated carbon can be used to remove unwanted color substances to improve the refinement and use value of the extract.

Beverage industry: In the production of beverages such as juice, wine and beer, activated carbon is used to remove pigments and improve flavor. In addition, it is also used to remove chlorinated odors or other odors produced by some beverages.

Edible oil: In the process of refining edible oil, activated carbon is used to remove color and odor, and improve the gloss and consumer appeal of oils.
