Edible Oil

ColorSorb is used in the purification of edible oils derived from a variety of raw materials, including palm, olive, coconut and rape sources. ColorSorb can effectively alter colours and remove toxins that are naturally present or entrained as part of the extraction or refining process. One particular concern is a group of contaminants called Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (or PAH).

Wine and Vinegar

In wine and vinegar production, ColorSorb activated carbon products remove various unwanted contaminants and control colour, flavour and odour. Concern about contaminants, including pesticides, is increasing and ColorSorb can remove these.

Powdered carbons with a microporous structure are used to remove both contaminants and compounds that create unpleasant smells and odours, including isopropyl methoxy pyrazine. Powdered carbons with a macroporous structure are used to remove unwanted colour compounds such as tannins and anthocyanins.

Brewing, Bottling and Soft Drinks

Jacobi’s activated carbons from the Colorsorb™ and AquaSorb™range ensures effective removal of:

  • Chlorine
  • THM (trihalomethanes)
  • Organic contaminants
  • Chloramine
  • Taste and odour
  • Trace undesirable compounds (e.g. pesticides)

We offer both powdered and granulated forms to beverage producers and can advise on which is best according to your specific processes.
