  • How is dry copra extracted?
  • More commonly, the dry copra is first extracted by the solvent-free method using expellers to obtain better quality coconut oil. Then the residue is processed through solvent extraction plant using food-grade hexane as a solvent to extract the residual coconut oil (8 to 12%). Dry copra may be extracted directly in solvent extraction plants.
  • What is copra used for?
  • Copra, after extraction of oil, leaves a residue which is palatable oil cake (or copra meal or mash). It is used in animal feeds, mainly for ruminants. It is used as fodder for horses, cattle, sheep and deer. Its high protein content (and oil content) is fattening for stock.
  • How is copra oil made?
  • Copra oil is pressed from dried coconut meat. Harvesting coconuts for copra is a labor-intensive process. Farmers and plantation workers manually remove the fibrous outer husk, then split open the coconut shell to drain the liquid.
  • Do different extraction techniques affect copra residue oil extraction?
  • In this study, the effect of three different extraction techniques on the copra residue oil (CRO) extraction were investigated. The aim is to evaluate the suitability of MAE as compared to other extraction techniques; SXE and ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE).
