Abstract: A process for obtaining white sugar from e.g. sugar cane by treating the crude sugar juice with acid activated bentonite preferably selected from the group of smectites, whereby the acid activated bentonite mixture replaces the traditional environmental unfriendly sulfitation process. The acid-activated clay together with polyaluminium salts, and preferably phosphoric and/or sulfuric acid allows obtaining a high quality white sugar.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adsorbent comprising a clay material and activated carbon. Further the invention relates to an animal feed comprising such adsorbent and to the use of such adsorbent for the adsorption of microbial toxins, in particular mycotoxins.

Abstract: Applicants have amended the original Application, as filed, to include the appropriate arrangement of the specification, with titles for the appropriate sections, as suggested by the Examiner on pages 3 and 4 of the Advisory Action. No new subject matter is introduced by any of these amendments.

Abstract: A method for purifying biodiesel, wherein a crude biodiesel is provided which contains at least one glycoside, and the crude biodiesel is reacted with an adsorbent which contains at least one smectite-silica gel mixed phase. The smectite-silica gel mixed phase has at least the following physical parameters: a specific surface area of more than 120 m2/g; a total pore volume of more than 0.35 ml/g; and a silicon content, calculated as SiO2, of at least 60 wt-%. A purified biodiesel is separated off from the adsorbent.

Abstract: A method for purifying biodiesel, biodiesel precursors, or the mixtures thereof, which contain at least one glycoside wherein biodiesel or a biodiesel precursor or a mixture thereof is incubated with at least one enzyme, in order to convert or cleave said at least one glycoside. In addition, the purified products which can be obtained according to this method and the use of at least one enzyme, which can cleave or convert glycoside, for purifying biodiesel or biodiesel precursors and the mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for separating proteins from liquid media, comprising providing a liquid medium containing proteins, providing a clay material which has: a specific surface greater than 150 m2/g, a pore volume greater than 0.35 ml/g, an ion exchange capacity greater than 40 meq/100 g, and a sediment volume in water of less than 15 ml/2 g, equilibrating said clay material to a pH of from 3.5 to 9.0, treating said liquid medium with the equilibrated clay material, and separating the purified, protein-depleted liquid medium from the clay material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for eliminating unwanted accompanying substances, particularly fragrance, flavor, and colour components, from vegetable proteins. Said method encompasses the following steps: (i) a vegetable raw material is extracted using an extracting agent such that, a vegetable protein extract is obtained; (ii) an inorganic adsorber material is added to the vegetable protein extract, a process in which unwanted accompanying substances, especially fragrance, flavor, and/or colour components, are bonded to the inorganic adsorber material.
