Filter diatomaceous earth F 25

Product detailed description

The passage of filtered substances through a layer of diatomaceous earth is one of the most widely used filtration methods in the food industry. The diatomaceous layer is made up of the remains of silica shells of dead freshwater diatoms, also known as diatoms, which date back to the Tertiary period.

This filtration method has a wide range of applications in the food industry, especially in the filtration of beer, wine, and fruit juices. In addition, diatomaceous earth is also used in dairy processing, starch factories, wastewater treatment, the fats industry, and the paper industry. Manufacturing sectors such as paint, lacquer, epoxy resin, polish, and cleaning products also use diatomaceous earth as a filler. In the pharmaceutical industry and agriculture, diatomaceous earth plays a significant role as a carrier of chemicals.
