MARKET INTRODUCTION
Bleaching clay is a clay adsorbent which when mixed with oils and fats at specific conditions, refines and decolorizes it by removing contaminants and coloring bodies. Natural bleaching clays have been used in refining edible fats and oils since the early 19th century. However, today activated bleaching clays with improved adsorptive and catalytic and ion exchange capacities are prevalently used. Activated bleaching clays are used to remove impurities such as chlorophylls, carotenes, metals, and oxidation products.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The rising consumption of refined edible oil has created significant levels of demands for bleaching clays, which are used to remove impurities as well as improve the appearance and flavor oils. The demand for fully refined oils with Free Fatty Acids (FFA) content of less than 0.1% is further driving the demand for highly activated bleaching clays. The pervasive uses of bleaching clays in the industrial sectors, especially in the production of biodiesel, castor oil, fatty acids, linseed oils, industrial triglycerides, etc. which are used in the production of varnishes, paints, soaps, etc. is anticipated to drive the demand for bleaching clays in the forecast period. Furthermore, bleaching clays play a crucial role in refining mineral oils, including lube oil, waste oil, insulating oil, rolling oil, and paraffin and waxes. The widespread use of bleaching clays in mineral oils to purify aromatic compounds and remove tar acids, sulphuric acids, sulfonic acids, sludge, and other contaminants is anticipated to be a substantial factor driving the bleaching clay market.
