This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Bio-Isoprene production from raw sugar using a fermentation process. The process examined is similar to Danisco/Goodyear process. In this process, raw sugar (sucrose) is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugars). The invert sugars are then fed to an aerobic fermentation step to produce Isoprene. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patents 20140187839 and 20130078699, both issued to Danisco and The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company in 2014 and 2013, respectively Keywords: Dextrose, Genencor, DuPont, 2-Methyl-1,3-butadiene, Direct Fermentation
