Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to the use of a particulate adsorbent material composition comprising particles having least 98% w/w of calcium carbonate relative to the particles' weight and presenting a mean diameter ranging from 30 µm to 50 µm, for the treatment of an aqueous composition comprising saccharose such as a sugarbeet aqueous extract. The invention further relates to a method for treating an aqueous composition and a method for producing sugar from sugarbeets that enable such particulate adsorbent material composition.
