To extract coconut oil, there is use of the traditional methods and also modern methods which use machinery for the extraction. Furthermore, the coconut oil that is extracted can be further refined as per an individual’s preference especially if a solvent was used. Some of the common methods of coconut oil extraction that are used in homes
The basic process is to immerse oil flakes (or pre-pressed cakes) in selected solvents, dissolve oil in solvents (composing mixed oil), then separate the mixed oil from solid residues (meal), evaporate and strip the mixed oil according to different boiling points, so that the solvent vaporizes into vapor and oil separates, thus obtaining oil (extracted crude oil).

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. The
(0.98 to 1.04) and pH (6.28 to 6.94). Oil extracted from coconut was successfully optimized using RSM. The regression models obtained has provided a basis for selecting optimum process variables for the recovery of oil using solvent extraction.

Coconut is extracted by dry and wet process. In spite of various techniques, wet processing is less viable than dry processing due to a 10-15% lower yield [4]. Conventional coconut oil uses hexane as solvent to extract up to 10% more oil from just using rotary mills and expellers. Many health
It is worth noting that a plant to process rapeseed with prepressing followed by extraction will often reduce the oil content from about 40% to 20% in the presses and from 20% to 0.8% in extraction, and that (after adjustments for moisture changes during the process) the press oil produced may be roughly 25.8% of the raw seed, while the

Desolventising The de-oiled meal contains about 20% - 35% solvent by weight depending on the material. The meal must be desolventised. The basic principal involved in Desolventation is direct heating of material with steam to a temperature well above boiling point of the solvent and thus ensuring no solvent is left over in the material.
