Why Ruwais needs filter aid
Site of ADNOC's Ruwais refinery and the Borouge petrochemical complex, among the largest in the region. Bleaching earth is consumed in every batch of refined edible oil, at roughly 0.5–2% of oil weight, so refineries order it on a fixed schedule.
The UAE is the Gulf's main trading and re-export hub. Jebel Ali and Khalifa Port handle cargo for the Emirates and for buyers across the GCC, Iran, East Africa and Central Asia, while ADNOC's upstream and downstream programmes and a steady pipeline of real-estate projects keep industrial demand high.
