Abstract: The present invention relates to liquid clarification and stabilization. More closely, the invention relates to both clarification by removal of suspended particles, as well as stabilization against formation of non-microbial haze via reduction of haze forming substances in various liquids. The haze forming substances are proteins and polyphenol tannins which occur in various plant related fluids such as beer wine, juices, flavorings, plant extracts, and even bioprocess streams. The method of the invention accomplishes both size based removal of colloidal non-haze related particles as well as adsorption based removal of haze forming substances without a need for added flocculants. The to method of the invention utilizes hydrophilic surfaces for adsorption of haze forming substances with such surfaces presented by materials arranged in manner so that size based exclusion of suspended particles is also achieved.
