It is brownish yellow in color and not yet edible as it still contains impurities. High-quality copra can contain up to 75% oil which is why manufacturers are constantly looking for more efficient methods of drying coconuts. The oil is processed from copra by expeller-press and solvent extraction. The following are the standard values for Crude CNO: Moisture and Impurities (maximum) : 1.0% Below are just some of the uses for Crude CNO:
A growing number of oil companies are now using Crude CNO in their production of Biodiesel. Chemical analysis reveals that Coco-Biodiesel reduces fuel consumption by about 45 percent. Smoke emission is reduced by up to 95 percent and the engine has more power while operating at cooler temperatures. By refining, bleaching and deodorizing it at high heat using a vacuum, the crude oil is transformed into Refined, Bleached & Deodorized or RBD coconut oil which is now fit for human consumption. Crude CNO is typically traded and exported in bulk except when buyers insist packaging to be in drums. Exporters also use ISO tanks that are loaded directly in tanker vessels. |
