Bleaching clay is a type of adsorbent clay or earth which in both activated or nonactivated form, is used in the process of decolorization of liquids, such as oils and fats without any chemical treatment. It mainly consists of clay minerals such as saponite, montmorillonite, and beidellite mixed with mineral fragments such as biotite, quartz, and feldspar. It is mainly used in refining and purifying petroleum products, edible oils, and fats. Bleaching clay is also known as fuller’s earth and whitening clay.
The prime factor driving demand for bleaching clay is the increasing demand for refined vegetable oil, as bleaching clay plays an integral role in its manufacturing process. Moreover, advancement in optimizing the yield of oilseeds is expected to drive more production of variegated oil seeds, thus translating into more demand for bleaching clay for its refining purposes. Apart from this, demand for fully refined oils with FFA content of less than 0.1% is driving further demand for highly activated bleaching clays. Bleaching clay often finds application in industrial sector particularly in the production of Industrial triglycerides, linseed oil, castor oil, biodiesel, fatty acids, etc., many of which are an integral part of manufacturing of paints, vanishes, soaps, etc. Due to rising living standards across the globe, demand for these products are bound to increase, thus fuelling more revenues in the global bleaching clay market. Apart from this, rising consumption of mineral oil due to its broad adoption in cosmetics, lubricants, and grease, is also expected to further boost consumption of bleaching clay for mineral oil refining and processing.
