  • How is coconut oil extracted?
  • Coconut oil can be extracted through wet extraction and dry extraction methods. Coconut oil refining is usually carried out on dry extracted coconut oil and generally includes the bleaching, deodorizing, and deacidification stages.
  • What are the different types of coconut oil extraction methods?
  • Moving beyond the cold pressing and hot extraction methods, there is the centrifugation technique. This method uses high-speed spinning to separate the oil from the other components of the coconut meat. Unlike other methods, centrifugation does not use heat, which means the quality of coconut oil is not compromised.
  • Does sonication increase coconut oil extraction yield?
  • The coconut oil extraction yield was increased by 2.7% when the sample was treated with sonication after using heat extraction process. Li et al., (2018) concluded that this extra step has high potential to be introduced in large scale industrial production processes as the increase in yield will save a lot of production costs [ 40 ].
  • Can enzyme-assisted coconut oil extraction improve copra processing?
  • Comparison of the phenolic-dependent antioxidant properties of coconut oil extracted under cold and hot conditions. Yield increases of about 50%, relative to experimental controls, were observed, suggesting the possibility of using the enzyme-assisted oil extraction methods to improve upon traditional copra processing.
