Product Description:
Celite is widely used as a filtration aid in various industries, particularly in laboratories and food processing. Its high porosity and ability to form a permeable layer make it ideal for separating solids from liquids. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is employed to filter out impurities during the production of drugs. In the food and beverage sector, Celite is used to clarify liquids such as beer, wine, and fruit juices by removing suspended particles. Additionally, it serves as a support material for catalysts in chemical reactions, enhancing efficiency. Its inert nature ensures it does not react with the substances it filters, making it a reliable choice for sensitive processes.
