Additional Food and Beverage Applications

The food and beverage industry encompasses a wide range of applications and Ecolab has been manufacturing resins for over 40 years for related use. We continually strive to develop better performing products and actively seek customer feedback regarding potential improvements to current products that will help increase productivity and reduce operating cost.

Additional applications for resin technology in food and beverage include:

• Amino Acids - extraction of lysine and decolorization of MSG
• Biomass Purification - demineralization and chromatographic separation of cellulose hydrolyzate
• Ethanol – demineralization and odor removal
• Glycerine - demineralization, chromatographic separation
• Vegetable Oil - transesterfication
• Vitamin E - chromatographic separation, chromatographic separation guard
• Wine - stabilization of tartrates, allergen removal of sulfites

Ecolab Advantage
Ecolab partners with customers on research and development projects to develop tailored resins for the latest applications. We also provide value to the food and beverage industry by offering outstanding technical sales and support, global presence, a customer-centered approach, and top-tier research and development laboratories and resources.

Meeting Complex Regulatory Needs
Ecolab’s organic acid purification resins must meet FDA guidelines (USA) and REACH requirements (EU). Purolite produces Halal products under the supervision of several respected Islamic councils and manufacture products in compliance with Kosher production and packaging rules.

Quality and consistency are key components and an essential part of chemicals. ISO and additional standards associated with quality management, good manufacturing practices, and ease of access to regulatory information are all well regarded and extremely relevant to the food and beverage industry. Ecolab has a dedicated, global regulatory team at our manufacturing locations to support your applications and management of change initiatives.
