Firstly they are used to sanitise wine musts and juices as well as equipment but can also be used during racking as both a measure to prevent bacteria from spoiling the wine and also as an antioxidant to keep air from staling the wine. Along with this, they can be used in removing chlorine or chloramine from water sources which is particularly useful to beer makers.
