ABSTRACT:
There are described new reactive adsorbents from sepiolite, as carrier, and an oxidant agent, particularly a permanganate salt, preferably potassium permanganate.
There is also described the process for preparing said reactive adsorbents, and a process for preserving harvested vegetable products and fruit using said reactive adsorbents. Said preserving process involves oxidation to carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) of the ethylene generated by the vegetable products and fruit, by contact of the atmosphere surrounding the vegetable with the reactive adsorbents of the invention.
