| dc.description.abstract | The determination of oil content and moisture in Palm Kernel Expeller
(PKE) and Copra Expeller (COPEX) at Palmcoco Laboratories. Had been done
the determination of oil content with soxhlet method for 4 hours and the
determination of moisture with heating method at 105o
C temperature and gotten
result the determination of oil content in PKE and COPEX were 7,44 % and 6,20
%, while the determination of moisture in PKE and COPEX were 6,45 % and 9,07
%.
The determination of oil qualities, one of it’s parameters was the
determination free fatty acid. After that, determinied the free fatty acid of PKE
and COPEX with based-acid titration method, getting the result of free fatty acid
in PKE and COPEX were 4,23 % and 7,17 %. From the determination of free
fatty acid was gotten that PKE still fulfilled the specification of Indonesia
National Standard (SNI) while COPEX didn`t fulfill specification of Indonesia
National Standard (SNI), while the maximum of free fatty acid content of
Indonesia National Standard (SNI) number 01-2901-2006 was 5 %. | en_US |
