Why Cameroon needs filter aid

Cameroon is Central Africa's largest economy and trade gateway, with Douala port also serving Chad and the Central African Republic.

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.
