Diatomaceous earth is widely utilized in research focused on:
- Filtration: Its porous structure makes it an excellent filter aid in water treatment and food processing, effectively removing impurities and contaminants.
- Agricultural Pest Control: Used as a natural insecticide, it helps control pests in organic farming by dehydrating insects without harming beneficial species.
- Absorbent Material: Commonly applied in the oil and chemical industries for spill cleanup, it absorbs liquids efficiently, making it a valuable tool for environmental management.
- Food Additive: It serves as a safe anti-caking agent in powdered foods, improving texture and shelf life while being non-toxic to consumers.
- Industrial Applications: Utilized in the production of paints, plastics, and cosmetics, it enhances product stability and performance due to its lightweight and absorbent properties.
