BECOGUR 3500

Filter Aids

BECOGUR 3500 diatomaceous earth is a coarse diatomaceous earth for clarifying liquids heavily loaded with turbidities in the food and beverage industry. It is also ideally suited for primary pre-coating.

Diatomaceous earth is produced from the silicaceous deposits of microscopic diatoms. The powdery BECOGUR 3500 diatomaceous earth is produced by mixing specially selected particle sizes. It is largely free from non-filtering components such as fine dust and silica sand.
