Specialty Filter Aids
| Fibra-Cel® |
Cellulose fibre and diatomite |
Widest range of flow rates and clarities. Efficient
precoat stability. |
| Acid-Washed Filter Aids |
Acid washed to reduce iron and calcium content |
Used where exceptional purity is needed as in the
filtration of distilled spirits and fine chemicals. |
| Sorbo-Cel® |
An activated diatomite filter aid |
Removes emulsified oil from water. |
| Micro-Cel® |
A synthetic hydrated calcium silicate |
Adsorbs free fatty acid and trace amonts of inorganic
acids. |
| Celkate® |
A synthetic hydrated magnesium silicate |
Removes colour and protein hazes from animal and vegetable
fats and oils, plus other solvents. |
| Silasorb® |
A synthetic hydrated calcium silicate |
Controls free fatty acids in cooking oils. |
