Study on Decolorization of Sugar Cane Juice Using Activated Carbons

Article Preview

Abstract:

Sugar cane juice decolorization was studied using four commercial activated carbons. In an attempt to relate decolorizing performances to the characteristics, reaction time and temperature, the color removal capabilities of activated carbons were measured. The four commercial activated carbons showed different decolorization efficiencies, which could be related to their physical and chemical properties. The decolorization efficiency of powdered activated carbon was much better than the others.
