Bleaching clay refers to an activated, adsorbent, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic white or beige colored powder that is composed of attapulgite, montmorillonite, and sepiolite clay minerals. It is manufactured using sulfuric acid, hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicates, fuller’s earth, attapulgite clay, bentonite and hydrochloric acid. Bleaching clay is commonly used for removing sludge, phospholipids, sulfonic acid, and traces of metal in the oil. It is also widely used for bleaching, decolorizing and refining oils and fats purposes. It offers numerous advantages, such as increased adsorbent activity and impurity removal of contaminants, such as phosphatides, oxidation products, pigments, metals, and soaps.

Bleaching Clay Market Trends:
The significant growth in the food and beverage (F&B) industry across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. Bleaching clay is widely used in the decolorizing and refining processes of oils and fats, which are further used in margarine, honey and shortening oils. In line with this, the widespread product adoption in vegetable oils due to the increasing demand for high-quality and pure edible oil is also favoring the market growth. Furthermore, the utilization of art machinery and various advanced technologies to procure high-quality raw materials and monitor bleaching clay through several control checks and quality procedures are providing a considerable boost to the market growth. Additionally, the increasing incorporation of bleaching clay in the manufacturing of biofuel as a sustainable energy resource due to the rising environmental consciousness is positively impacting the market growth. Apart from this, the rising expenditure capacities of consumers and the implementation of various government initiatives to promote and enhance the production of raw materials, such as fuller’s earth and kaolin, required for the formulation of bleaching clay are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
