Sweeteners

Dextrose and corn syrups are produced for food, soft drink, and candy sweetener products. Dextrose is also used as a feed stock for fermentation. It is often necessary to remove color, taste, and odor constituents as well as contaminants.

Technologies/Solutions:

Sweeteners and sweetener products often require the removal of color contaminants and taste and odor compounds. Removal of these compounds and decolorization of the raw material are commonly accomplished by using activated carbon or ion exchange resins, separately or in conjunction with each other.

Granular Activated Carbon

Activated carbon is used for the removal of impurities, odors, and colors. Some of our Granular Activated Carbons (GAC) are specifically designed for excellent odor removal in bio-organic applications.
