This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of L-Methionine production from raw sugar using a direct fermentation process The process examined is similar to the one developed by Metabolic Explorer. In this process, raw sugar (sucrose) is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugars). The invert sugars are then fermented to produce L-Methionine. Besides L-Methionine powder, an aqueous Methionine solution is also produced in the process. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 20150045434, issued to Roquette Freres in 2015 (assigned to Metabolic Explorer in 2015) (2) US Patent 20140134680, issued to Metabolic Explorer in 2014 Keywords: Dextrose, MetEx, Ajinomoto, CJ Bio, Arkema, Aerobic Fermentation, Essential Amino Acid, Roquette Freres
