Description:Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is one of the product from coconuts. VCO has many benefits in health and industry. One method of making the VCO is often used today is the fermentation. Today many domestic industries produce virgin coconut oil (VCO) but in fact, the industry has not been all good in terms of quality. The use of activated carbon from candlenut shells as an adsorbent to increase the quality of VCO has studied. The parameters tested were water content, free fatty acid, and peroxide. The results showed a decline in water levels from 0.1655% to 0.0597%, peroxide number decrease from 0.1991% to 0.0991%, and the free fatty acid content of 0.4186% to 0.366%.
