Makuti Types of coconut in Kenya Coconut is classified largely in to 2 types in Kenya: The East African Tall (EAT) and the Dwarf coconut.

Coconut oil has the main fatty acid composition of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) in the form of lauric acid (± 50%). Coconut oil can be extracted through wet extraction and dry extraction methods.

Increased investment in Kenya's coconut industry

Research on development of locally fabricated coconut oil extraction machines has also been ongoing. Better crop husbandry has boosted yield per crop from 15 to 30 fruits annually to more than 100. An acre of land could carry 50 trees that could often be intercropped with low crops such as maize, beans and bananas, thereby making better use of the land.

Virgin coconut oil is a useful substance in our daily life. It contains a high percentage of lauric acid which has many health benefits. The current industry has developed several methods to extract the oil out from the coconut fruit. This review paper aims to highlight several common extraction processes used in modern industries that includes cold extraction, hot extraction, low-pressure

Co ir used in this study were extracted from immature coconut husk wastes and matured coconut. husk wastes. The fibers were soaked into NaOH solution with a 20% concentration for 3 hours in. a

A comprehensive review on the techniques for coconut oil extraction

This method however requires a longer time to extract coconut oil as it needs to settle for days . An automated coconut oil extraction machine applying this method of extraction is designed by Fabian in year 2018. Without using the automated machine, the maximum percent oil recovery of VCO is at 88.35% and a yield of 30–31%.

The Refined, Bleached and Deodorized (RBD) Coconut Oil (CO) and RBD Palm Oil (PO) are heavily consumed as cooking oils by Asians. Recently, Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) and Palm-pressed Mesocarp Oil (PPMO) emerged into the market as functional oils. A number of studies were conducted to extract these edible oils by using different methods

Copra or Coconut Oil: Production, Specification and Applications

Processing dry copra through expellers generally offers about 60% yield (as high as 70%) of coconut oil based of dry weight. About 30 to 40% is oil cake. Typically, one thousand mature coconuts weigh about 1440 kg and yield about 170 kg of copra from which around 70 lit of coconut oil can be extracted.
