Applications

Precision-Made Bone Charcoal for Superior Filtration and Purification

At Retaj Chemicals, we manufacture high-quality bone charcoal, a crucial material renowned for its exceptional filtration and purification properties. Our bone charcoal is produced through a meticulous pyrolysis process, where animal bones are heated in a controlled, oxygen-limited environment, resulting in a product rich in carbon and hydroxyapatite.

Filtration and Purification

Bone charcoal is extensively used in the sugar industry as a decolorizing agent, effectively removing colored impurities and refining sugar to its purest form. Additionally, its ability to adsorb heavy metals and fluoride makes it invaluable in water treatment processes, where clean and safe water is essential.

Black Pigmentation

Historically, bone charcoal has been a preferred choice for creating rich black pigments used in art and printing. Its deep color and excellent tinting strength make it an artist’s favorite, especially in creating traditional black inks and paints

Metal Refining

Bone charcoal is used in the refining of precious metals like gold and silver. It acts as a flux, removing impurities and ensuring a purer final product during the smelting process

Petroleum Refining

It is used in the petroleum industry to refine crude oil, specifically in the production of petroleum jelly and other petroleum-based products. Bone charcoal helps in decolorizing and purifying the final product

Catalysis

In some chemical processes, bone charcoal serves as a catalyst or a catalyst support. Its porous structure and surface area make it suitable for facilitating chemical reactions

Deodorization

Bone charcoal is also employed in deodorizing fats, oils, and other organic substances. Its ability to adsorb odorous compounds makes it useful in producing odor-free products in industries like food processing and cosmetics

Advanced Filtration

Dual-Action Filtration: Maximizing Purity with Bone Charcoal

Bone charcoal is unique due to its dual-action filtration capabilities. It not only provides a high carbon surface area for adsorption but also benefits from the natural hydroxyapatite lattice, making it an ideal choice for removing a wide range of impurities.
