Can you decolorize crude palm oil with activated carbon?
Accepted Answer
Yes, activated carbon can be used to decolorize crude palm oil. Activated carbon is a highly porous material with a large surface area, which allows it to adsorb impurities like pigments and other colored compounds from the oil. This process is called adsorption. The decolorized oil is then filtered to remove the activated carbon.
