Maximizing Coconut Resource Efficiency through Advanced Solvent Extraction & Refining Technology.
Indonesia is one of the world's most significant coconut producers, where the coconut processing industry holds immense development potential. To enhance resource utilization, a 100 TPD (Tons Per Day) copra extraction line was established, integrated with a 60 TPD coconut oil bleaching system.
QIE GROUP provided a comprehensive solution combining solvent extraction with specialized refining, ensuring high-efficiency oil recovery and premium quality standards for the local Indonesian market.
The project consists of several highly automated systems designed for continuous, stable production:
The 100 TPD line follows a sophisticated engineering sequence:
Material Flow: Copra Conveying → Pre-treatment → Solvent Extraction → DTDC Processing → Meal Cooling → Finished Copra Meal.
Oil & Solvent Flow: Miscella → Evaporation → Stripping → Crude Coconut Oil Storage.
Refining Step: Crude Oil → Active Clay Bleaching → Premium Finished Oil Storage.
Q1: Why is 100 TPD the ideal capacity for Indonesia?
It aligns perfectly with the local copra collection logistics in Indonesia, balancing high industrial throughput with manageable raw material supply chains.
Q2: How does QIE Group ensure low residual oil levels?
Through uniform crushing and our continuous solvent extraction technology, we maximize penetration and recovery, leaving the meal with minimal oil content.
Q3: What makes the 60 TPD bleaching system necessary?
The bleaching process removes pigments and impurities using active clay, significantly increasing the market value and stability of the finished coconut oil.
Q4: Is the solvent recovery process environmentally safe?
Yes. Our multi-stage evaporation and DTDC systems recover solvents with high efficiency, ensuring zero hazardous residues and reducing costs.
Q5: Can the automation level be customized for local operators?
Absolutely. The plant features high-degree PLC automation that is user-friendly and designed for stable, continuous running with minimal manual intervention.
