Why Angola needs filter aid

Angola is one of Africa's largest oil producers, investing in diversification into agriculture, mining and manufacturing. Luanda and Lobito are the main ports.

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.

Oil, gas & petrochemicals in Angola

Offshore oil operations and the LNG plant at Soyo buy pipe, valves and gaskets.

In Angola, upstream oil & gas and refineries buy filter aid from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.

Who buys filter aid: Upstream oil & gas · Refineries · Petrochemical plants · Fuel depots

Edible oil milling & refining in Angola

Angola crushes and refines oilseeds for its domestic market. Refineries need activated bleaching clay and filter aid on a predictable schedule; mills need conveyors and bearings; packers need barrels and PET preforms.

In Angola, oilseed crushing mills and solvent extraction plants buy filter aid from us mainly for biodiesel and wax and paraffin purification.
