Synopsis

With the aim of preparing a material with very significant decolorizing power against olive oil and in order to improve the surface properties of local bentonite clays, acid activation was carried out (sulfuric or hydrochloric acids at different concentrations) which is a chemical treatment generally used to optimize the adsorption capacity of this type of material, with a view to its use as a discoloration adsorbent of a vegetable oil such as olive oil.
