Coconut Juice Processing Line

Single strength coconut water(Non-concentrated coconut water)

tin cans,bottles or asptic bags

coconut water content is 92%-95% soluble solids is about 12 brix

Fresh coconut after dehusking and deshelling, then use one needle to pierce one hole on the coconut to extract coconut water. After extraction, coconut water is filtered. Filtration can be done using a double cloth filter. This is especially important for mature coconut water, as dry husk fibres and dirt from the shell of mature nuts can easily get into the coconut water during extraction. After filtration, the coconut water is quickly cooled to retard any deterioration reactions. Then, it is sent for separation, homogenizing, degassing, subsequent pasteurization and aseptic packaging.If coconut water is extracted at a location away from the aseptic packaging site, the filtered coconut water can be packed into food grade plastic bags, quickly cooled and transported to downstream processing

Concentrate Coconut water

aseptic bags(5kg,220kg or 1000kg)

60-65 brix and water content is about 35%-40%

Fresh coconut water after extracting, filtering, cooled to 10 ºC and storing into double layers insulation tanks. Then the low-temperature coconut water will be prepasteurization and separation. Then, it goes into a multiple-effect evaporation stage to increase °Brix levels. Usually, the product is concentrated to 60-65 °Brix and packed into 200 kg plastic bags in drums for bulk transportation under ambient conditions. It is recommended that the concentrate coconut water will be stored at below zero temperature for 2 years.

Coconut milk/cream

aseptic bags,tin cans or bottles

The fat content of the coconut milk is 5%-20%, whereas coconut cream reaches to 20%-50%

To extract coconut milk for industrial manufacturing purposes, mature coconuts go through deshelling and paring. Pieces of kernels are then sent into industrial-scale cutters and grinders. Next, grated coconut kernel then goes into a series of screw extractors to extract coconut milk. The residual kernel from this first press is then mixed with water before it is pressed again to increase extraction yield. After extraction, coconut milk is filtered to remove large contaminants. It can then be standardized to a pre-determined level of fat and blended with other ingredients. Finally, coconut milk is homogenized, degassed, pasteurized and aseptically filled into aseptic bags or small package like bottles or tin cans.

Coconut Oil

bottles or barrels

RBD coconut oil and virgin coconut oil (VCO)

 Coconut oil processing methods or technologies are classified into two major types based on copra or fresh coconut kernel used. The oil extraction technology, which starts with copra as the raw material, is commonly known as the dry process. While the method that uses fresh coconuts as starting material is generally called the fresh-wet or fresh-dry process. Based on different separation methods, coconut oil can be classified into two types - RBD coconut oil and virgin coconut oil (VCO). The former is refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) from dry extraction, while the latter is produced by fresh-wet and fresh-dry extractions.

Coconut water extracting system machine 

It is composed of a coconut water drilling machine and a coconut water extraction conveyor, the machine is made of SUS304 material and with vat for coconut water collection. It is semi-automatic, one operator holds the coconut and aims the coconut eye to the drill to get the water then pours coconut water into the coconut water collection vat.Coconut Water Extraction and Filtration positioned to recover water. Extracted coconut water is fed to a filtration system to remove the fragments of the shell originated by the perforation. Coconuts are perforated an process. The product is extremely sensitive and should be immediately cooled down to 2-4°C in order to avoid microbiological and chemical changes.

Coconut Milk Extraction system machine 

1. Coconuts are deshelled, pared and then routed to a chopper that assures a very fine particle size. The chopped kernel is sent to an extractor where the coconut cream is extracted.2. Belt Presser is an efficient extraction equipment, which is widely used in the Apple/Pears Processing. The equipment has large squeezing ability and high rate of juice yield, at the same time also is energy-saving, automatic inlet and outlet, high degree of automation, continuous working, strong commonality, sufficient filter, convenient operation and easy maintenance. The juice yield can be as high as 70 ~ 80% (depending on the raw material), which can greatly reduce the production cost and improve the economic benefit for the enterprise.

Coconut Oil Extraction system machine 

1. Pretreatment Process of coconut oil extraction machine: Cleaning → crusher → cooking - pre-press → twice pressing → crude oil.2. Coconut oil refining basic process of coconut oil extraction machine: Copra crude oil →filtration →deacidification - degumming →decolorization → finished coconut oil.3. Copra oil extraction production line main include crushing section, steaming and roasting station, oil press, degumming section, deacidification, decolorization section, deodorizing section. Copra moisture should be controlled between 7% -10%, or not conducive to copra oil extraction.

Sterilizing and Aseptic Filling system machine 

1. Coconut milk and coconut water can be sterilizied or pasteurized by a plate heat exchanger or, if food grade steam is available, by direct heating injection system completed by a tubular heat exchanger.2. Coconut cream can be treated with the same process technology, with the only exception that the indirect heat treatment can be carried out only by a tubular heat exchanger.3. Finally, coconut milk is usually homogenized before being aseptically filled, in order to avoid the phase separation of water and fat during storage.Once sterilized the product can be filled in aseptic bag in drums or in box thanks to Aseptic Filling Machine.

Coconut powder drying system machine:  

The drying speed is fast, and the surface area of coconut milk is greatly increased after atomization. In the hot air flow, 95% - 98% of water can be evaporated instantly, and the drying time is only a few seconds. The products produced have good uniformity, fluidity and solubility, high purity and good quality. The production process is simplified and the operation control is convenient.

desiccated coconut drying system machine 

The desiccated coconut dried by the belt dryer is easy to turn yellow and the product quality is reduced; Ordinary boiling dryer is easy to produce uneven drying and caking, especially for full-fat desiccated coconut. Our drying system specially developed for desiccated coconut has solved the above two problems and brought good economic value-added to many customers at home and abroad.
