Report Overview
Activated clay, also known as activated bleaching earth or activated fuller’s earth, is a highly processed natural clay primarily composed of montmorillonite or bentonite, treated with acid or heat to enhance its adsorptive properties. It is widely used in industries such as edible oil refining, petroleum purification, and wastewater treatment due to its ability to remove impurities, colorants, and undesirable odors. The activation process increases its surface area and porosity, making it highly effective for decolorization and purification applications. Its demand is closely tied to the food processing, chemical, and environmental sectors, where stringent quality standards drive the need for efficient filtration and purification agents.
The global Activated Clay market size was estimated at USD 100.36 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.50% during the forecast period.
