Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Lactic Acid production from raw sugar using a low pH fermentation process. The process examined is similar to Cargill process. 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 lactic acid. The process generates an 88 wt% lactic acid solution in water 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
