Coconut Fatty Acid Distillate (CFAD)

Coconut Fatty Acid Distillate (CFAD) is indeed a byproduct of the coconut oil refining process. It is a viscous liquid that ranges in color from yellow to brownish, and it is rich in various fatty acids that are obtained from coconut oil. CFAD has multiple industrial applications, including its use as a raw material in the production of soaps and detergents, as well as in the manufacturing of surfactants. Additionally, CFAD can serve as a feedstock for the production of biofuels. Its high content of medium-chain fatty acids, such as lauric acid, makes it a valuable ingredient in the manufacturing of personal care and household products. Moreover, CFAD is sourced sustainably, further enhancing its value in various industries.
