Pomegranate (Punica granatum) is nutritionally rich fruit contain high amount of ascorbic acid thiamin and other nutrients. Pomegranate variety Ganesh was used for clarification. Physicochemical analysis of juice was carried out. Juice extracted by mixer contains tannin, pectin which are responsible for bitterness and turbidity. Enzyme treatment given to the fruit juice in 0.05% to 0.30%s/v concentrations. Single enzyme shows that pectinase 0.20% gives clarity about 68.75% and protease gives 57.85% clarity at 0.15% and bentonite gives 72.00%concentration at 500C for 60 min. Combine enzyme concentration was optimized by Central Composite Design. The optimum combine concentration after application of CCD were found Pectinase (0.10%), Protease (0.25%) at 500C for 60 min for pomegranate.. The above concentrations were optimized for temperature (30 to 60oC) and time (30 to 110 min). The optimum clarification parameters were found combine Concentrations of enzymes 0.10% pectinase and 0.25%protease at 500C for 80 min which had given maximum transmittance of 77.40%which is optimized with the help of CCD.. Chemical analysis results show that the T.S.S. slightly decreased (13.80 to 13.30) and ascorbic acid (mg/100ml) content decreases (15.18 to 13.20) while pH of the juice increases organoleptic characters and overall acceptability of clarified juice was enhanced compared to non-clarified juice.
