  • Can coconut oil SFE be used as a solvent?
  • In order to decide the feasibility of coconut oils SFE with CO 2 as solvent it is necessary to compare with optimized traditional oils extraction process with hexane (or similar organic solvents). Optimized traditional oils extraction must considerate multistage solid-liquid extraction, solvent evaporation and solvent condensation.
  • Do extraction methods affect the quality of coconut oil?
  • It was observed that extraction methods had significant influence on both the oil yield and quality of coconut oil; the quality attributes of the oil were comparable to acceptable standards for vegetable oil.
  • Can coconut oil be extracted with supercritical CO2?
  • Thermodynamic and economic feasibility of coconut oil extraction with supercritical CO 2 was evaluated. Empirical state equations surrounding critical CO 2 point were fitted. A rigorous mathematical model for extraction kinetics was built. Mass transfer and equilibrium properties of coconut oil were empirically evaluated.
  • How to extract oil from coconut copra?
  • A previous study indicated that 100% of oil could be extracted from the coconut copra within 1 h by using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO 2) as the extraction solvent with the condition of 120°C and 517 bar.
  • Does extraction method affect TTA of coconut oil?
  • extracted oil. The result shows t hat the extraction method has a significant difference on the TTA of the coconut oil. Kothalawala et al. (2018) for coconut oil. TTA is used in food products. presented in Table 1. Chemical oil extraction method has reported by Seweh et al. (2016). F ree fatty acid is the oleic acid).
  • What is the traditional method of coconut oil extraction?
  • The traditional method of coconut oil extraction is mechanical pressing or boiling. However, a new enzymatic process was developed by McGlone OC, Canales ALM, and Carter JV in 1986.
