Coconut oil comes from coconut fruits. After cracking the coconut fruit,the white endosperm will be removed and dried become what it calls Copra. This copra is the raw material for producing the coconut oil by pressing it with machinery to get crude coconut oil. To get the refined coconut oil, it will be passed to several processes in refinery plant.
The process starts by adding and mixing the crude coconut oil with bleaching earth, which will then be filtered to remove any impurities. Finally, it will be heated to remove free fatty acid and remaining scent to become refined coconut oil (RBD coconut oil). This refined coconut oil is the one that we use as cooking oil. Refined coconut oil doesn’t have odor and has high melting point.
Despite coconut oil used as cooking oil, it also widely used for body, skin, & hair lotion and in the manufacture of sweet, margarine, paints , and pharmaceutical agents. There are 3 forms that can be obtained from coconut oil manufacturing process; virgin or extra virgin coconut oil, refined coconut oil, and partially hydrogenated coconut oil. It will be produced based on the needs.
