ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]This study was carried out on extraction of oil from coconut and its characterization. Solvent extraction and characterization of oil from coconut seed using alternative solvents have been studied. The solvents used were Isopropanol and Petroleum ether. The Physicochemical parameters of the extracted oil was determined by standard methods of analysis. The percentage oil extracted were 94.7 and 72 for isopropanol and petroleum ether respectively. Also, the acid, peroxide (mg/peroxide/kg), saponification (mgKOH/goil) and iodine (mg iodine/100g) values were 0.156 and 0.156, 0.45 and 0.55, 2

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]1.2 Statement of problemCoconut oil is commonly used in cooking, it has been tested for use as a feedstock for biodiesel and can also be used as skin moisturizer, helping with dry skin. Increasing the extraction of oil to meet the rising demand for vegetable oils in different industries requires a suitable solvent which is readily available in the country at a relatively cheaper cost to replace hexane, which is considered hazardous, expensive and occasionally scarce based on demand and cost of petroleum. This study therefore, sought to provide a fair idea on a possible solvent replacemen ... Continue Reading
