Why Canada needs bleaching earth & filter aid
Canada is a resource-rich economy with oil sands in Alberta, potash and canola in the Prairies, mining across the country and manufacturing in Ontario and Quebec.
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.
