Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Lactic Acid production from glucose syrup using a low pH fermentation process The process examined is similar to Cargill process. In this process, a 70 wt% glucose-water syrup is used as raw material and an 88 wt% lactic acid solution in water is generated as final product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 20060094093, issued to Cargill in 2006 (2) US Patent 7736514, issued to BASF in 2010 Keywords: Dextrose, 2-Hydroxypropanoic Acid, Anaerobic Fermentation, Cell Recycle, Acid Tolerant Bacteria
