Abstract

Indonesia is a country that has the largest coconut plantation in the world, with its main copra products. The quality of copra produced from rural areas is low and complained by the international market because it is thought to contain aflatoxin. This paper describes the fast-drying machine to produce high-quality desiccated coconut and coconut oil, which is equivalent to virgin coconut oil (VCO). This research produced an innovation consisting of a drying machine for grated coconut, a pressing machine to extract oil and a centrifuge to produce high purity coconut oil.
