  • How is copra used in coconut oil production?
  • In coconut oil production, copra is used after undergoing a crucial process of moisture reduction to enhance oil concentration and facilitate easy oil extraction from the coconut seeds. Special attention is given to copra drying methods and by-product utilization in this process.
  • How much coconut oil is in a copra meal?
  • The solvent extracted copra meal can still contain residual 2 to 4% coconut oil. Processing dry copra through expellers generally offers about 60% yield (as high as 70%) of coconut oil based of dry weight. About 30 to 40% is oil cake.
  • Which raw material is used for coconut oil production?
  • Coconut is served as a raw material for coconut oil production. Dry and wet materials are generally known as dry coconut (copra) and wet coconut, respectively. Both raw materials can be used for extraction of oil. Dry processing is the most commonly applied for extraction.
  • How much coconut oil is in 170 kg copra?
  • It¡¯s mentioned that copra has 60-70% oil, but then it further says 1000 coconut weighs 1440kg which yields 170 kg copra ie 11.8% from which 70 lit of coconut oil can be produced. Now 60% of 170 kg copra is 102 kg or 112 lit of coconut oil not 70 lit. Where is the error.
  • What is solvent extraction in coconut oil production?
  • Solvent extraction, a relatively modern practice in coconut oil production, leverages organic solvents to separate the oil from raw coconuts. Particularly, hexane is popularly used due to its efficiency and high oil yielding capacity.
  • Does increasing the time for copra oil extraction result in high oil yield?
  • While, for MAE, the copra oil yield only increases until 15 min of extraction (62.97%) and after that the oil yield showed decreasing trend. Thus, by increasing the time for oil extraction through all of the techniques, it is could not resulted on high oil yield.
