Coconut oil is one of the main traditional products derived from the meat or kernel. It is a mixture of chemical compounds called glycerides containing fatty acids and glycerol. The different fatty acids present in coconut range from C16 – C18 carbon atom chains.
Coconut oil processing methods or technologies are classified into two major types:
The oil extraction technology which starts with copra as the raw material is termed as the Dry Process, while the method that uses fresh coconuts as starting material is generally called the Wet Process.
Dry processing of meat for oil production involves the conversion of coconut meat into copra prior to expelling and refining. This process is however done off-farm, in an oil mill. At the mill, the copra undergoes the following steps:
Coconut produced from good quality copra is clear, low in fatty acid and has good coconut aroma. However crude coconut oil from bad quality copra is dark, turbid, high in free fatty acid (FFA), phosphatides and gums, has an unpleasant odour. To render this oil edible, it has to undergo a refining process. Refining consists of neutralization, bleaching and deodorizing.
