Dear All,
No pbl to use ClO2 as it has been registered as TP#20 (Protection of
Feed and Foodstuff) under the Directive No 98/83/EC
Residue = Not Detectable
If you have residues (and the amount is sufficient to have
technological and/or functional and/or nutritional properties) , it
becomes a food additive and it cannot be considered any longer as
processing aid... so it has to be on the food additives positive list
(in what foodstuffs it can be used and what are the residues
allowed), and labeled.
But the ClO2 is not a food additive in EU.
Kind regards,
RM
