Oil is extracted from the treated seed particles in continuous screw expellers. In very large plants this operation is used as a pre-treatment before solvent extraction. Solvent extraction removes the oil from a flaked seed or oil-cake by treating them with a solvent in which the oil is soluble.

The oil obtained should be filtered through a cotton bag to remove any fragments of coconut gratings which may be present. The entire oil extraction process should be completed in one day. If this is not possible, the process can be halted after the grated coconut has been dried in the sun for 4 h and before the five coconuts have been grated.

It is particularly recommended for small coconut holdings. The kiln can dry 200 nuts (400 cups) at a time in approximately 34 hours. It is relatively inexpensive and may be afforded by most producers. Except for a slight smoky smell, good quality copra can be produced from this kiln. (c) Indirect hot-air drying.
