  • What is a medium scale copra oil mill?
  • This is one of our project in Philippine – a medium scale copra oil mill, including 20TPD oil extraction line and 10TPD oil refinery line. The daily capacity is processing 20 tons of copra (desiccated coconut) and get 10 tons of refined coconut oil. It is designed for manufacturing edible coconut oil from desiccated coconut (copra).
  • What are the steps of copra oil mill plant?
  • At a copra oil mill plant, the copra undergoes the following steps: Copra Drying, Copra Cutting, Cooking / Conditioning, Pressing, Filtration, Oil storage and Filling. The Copra dryer is used to dry fresh coconut kernel from 35 – 40% moisture content to 5 – 7% using hot air.
  • How copra oil is filtered?
  • Copra is high in fiber content, so the crude oil generally contains more slag. In order to reduce the burden of filter equipment, clarification process is arranged before filtering. The sludge go back to screw press again directly. The clarified oil will be sent to filtering process and crude coconut oil will be finally obtained.
  • What is disintegrated copra used for?
  • Disintegrated Copra obtained after the cutting process can be used as a raw material for Oil Press. The copra contains 60 – 65% oil content. After a double stage pressing, about 8 – 9 % residual oil is left in the copra meal which is an excellent source of protein supplement for grass-fed animals.
  • What is copra?
  • Copra is the dried kernel of coconut. Coconut oil is derived from copra, which is the dried kernel of coconut. The major Coconut producing countries are Indonesia, Philippines, India, Sri Lanka, Brazil, Vietnam, Mexico, Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Malaysia, Nigeria, American Samoa, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Tanzania.
  • How is oil extracted from copra?
  • The oil is expelled from the copra by the pressure exerted by a continuous rotating warm shaft in the barrel or cage of the press. The barrel is built with openings to allow the escape of oil. Crude expelled oil generally contains 5 – 10% suspended solid (foots).
