Why Palestine needs activated bleaching clay
Palestine has stone, food, furniture and light manufacturing around Hebron and Nablus; goods move through Israeli or Jordanian ports under access restrictions.
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.
Edible oil milling & refining in Palestine
Palestine crushes and refines oilseeds for its domestic market. Refineries need activated bleaching clay and filter aid on a predictable schedule; mills need bearings and couplings; packers need barrels and PET preforms.
In Palestine, oilseed crushing mills and solvent extraction plants buy activated bleaching clay from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.
