APPLICATIONS & SOLUTIONS
Food & Beverage
Food and beverage production are some of the most strictly regulated industries. It’s vital that public health is a producer’s top priority and that any potentially dangerous impurities or contaminants are removed. Using activated carbon is an excellent option to not only remove toxic contaminants, but to alter taste, colours and odours too. Our activated carbon products are also widely used for water purification by beverage producers who use can use only the very purest water in their processes.

Edible Oil
Activated carbon is commonly used in edible oil purification for both:
- Colour modification
- Toxic contaminants removal (PAH – Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Dioxines and PCB –
Polychlorinated Bipheny)
Our powdered activated carbons provide industry leading performance in this application.
Brewing, Bottling and Soft Drinks
To ensure that water quality meets the demands of the beverage industry and food standards, water used to produce beer, bottled water and soft drinks is generally treated with activated carbon. Our carbon products can remove various contaminants, unwanted compounds, tastes and odours.
Fruit Juice
Activated carbon is frequently used in concentrated fruit juice production. It is effective at removing patulin, a highly regulated organic compound often found in apples and other fruits. It can also be used to make colour modifications and remove odours.
Sweeteners
Jacobi offers several activated carbon products which are effective at removing unwanted byproducts from various sweeteners. Our products are also used for decolourisation purposes.
Citric Acid
Jacobi offers various carbon products for the purification of citric acid and removing unwanted colour compounds. Use of activated carbons can help citric acid producers meet their high food quality standards and industry regulations.
Lactic Acid, Gelatin, Mono Sodium Glutamate (MSG)
Activated carbons are commonly used in the production of the thickener gelatin, and the preservatives lactic acid and mono sodium glutamate (also known widely as MSG). Jacobi supplies high quality activated carbon products in granular and powdered form for decolourisation, deodorisation and organics removal.
Colouring Additive
Activated carbon serves as an ideal natural additive colourant for pigmentation used in the manufacture of confectionary (in particular, liquorice) cheese and cosmetics.
Glycerine
Activated carbon serves multiple needs for glycerine purification, including stabilisation and ageing control of the final product, and the removal of unwanted colours and byproducts.
Wine and Vinegar
Activated carbon products are used in the wine and vinegar production industries to modify colour, remove unwanted odours and remove contaminants. Our activated carbons are effective solutions, helping producers to ensure they comply with strict industry regulations.
