  • What is Cocos nucifera (L) oil-processing by-products?
  • sition of the various Cocos nucifera (L.) oil-processing by-products. Cocos nucifera (L.) (Coconut) is one example of a very versatile plant; every part has different usage and application. Since primitive times, coconut trees and products have been widely used for human food and nonfood needs.
  • Can coconut oil be converted into biodiesel?
  • The transesterification reaction of coconut (Cocos nucifera) oil was also optimized to obtain biodiesel. They reported that coconut oil was converted into biodiesel at a higher density using a CaO/kaolin catalyst compared to the use of KOH .
  • What are the physicochemical properties of extracted oil from Cocos nucifera?
  • Physicochemical properties of extracted oil from Cocos nucifera (L.) were reported to be as follows: a saponification value of 7.74 mg KOH/g, a peroxide value of (mEqH 2 O 2 /100 g) 10.0 free fatty acid at 20.4 (oleic acid %), an acid value of 0.796 mg KOH/g, a specific gravity at (g) 0.95, and an iodine value of 46.8 I 2 /100 g.
  • Can coconut coir be used in biofuel production?
  • Besides the above, the potential usage of coconut by-products and its coir has been studied to determine their possible usage within biofuel production, with the purpose of chemical and enzyme production substrate and for the cultivation of mushrooms. Compositions of coir bers and other bers became prominent in many applications.
  • What are coconut by-products?
  • Coconuts’ by-products’ applications depend on desired value-added products, social needs, culture, and environment. Coconut water and oil were the primary consumption reason for coconut. The other applications can be counted as coconut cream, coconut powder, coconut shell, coconut testa, and coconut fiber.
  • Can coconut shells be used in biofuel production?
  • coconut shells is extensively used to absorb solid, liquid, and gaseous pollutants. Besides the above, the potential usage of coconut by-products and its coir has been studied to determine their possible usage within biofuel production, with the purpose of chemical and enzyme production substrate and for the cultivation of mushrooms.
