Production of Coconut Protein Powder from Coconut Wet Processing Waste and its Characterization

Abstract: Virgin coconut oil (VCO) has been gaining popularity in recent times. During its production, byproducts such as coconut skim milk and insoluble protein are obtained which are underutilized or thrown away to the environment at present. This study deals with utilization of these byproducts to obtain a value-added product, namely, coconut protein powder. When coconut milk was subjected to centrifugation, three phases, namely, fat phase (coconut cream), aqueous phase (coconut skim milk), and solid phase (insoluble… Show more

“…Two interesting applications were found for byproducts of coconut food industry. Naik et al (2012) evaluated the byproducts of virgin coconut oil processing industry, such as coconut skim milk and insoluble protein, to obtain a value-added product, namely, coconut protein powder. This had shown to have good emulsifying properties and hence had potential to find applications in emulsified foods and could be a useful food ingredient.…”

“…The borojó pulp was obtained by removing the shell and seeds. The phases of borojó were obtained as reported by Naik et al (2012), with some modifications. First, borojó pulp (BPP) and water (1:3) were mixed at 38 • C under magnetic stirring (1200 rpm) for 40 min.…”

“…After centrifugation, the coconut milk would be separated by the density of each parts to be three phases (Naik et al, 2012) including fat phase (coconut cream), aqueous phase (low-fat coconut milk) and solid phase (insoluble protein).…”
