description Product Description
Celite 545 is widely used as a filtration aid in various industries due to its high porosity and ability to form a permeable filter cake. In the food and beverage industry, it is employed to clarify liquids such as beer, wine, and fruit juices by removing suspended particles and impurities. In the pharmaceutical sector, it aids in the filtration of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other solutions to ensure purity. Additionally, it is utilized in chemical manufacturing processes to separate solids from liquids efficiently. Its inert nature and thermal stability make it suitable for high-temperature applications, including catalyst support in petrochemical refining. Celite 545 is also used in environmental applications, such as water treatment, to remove contaminants from wastewater.
