Potential and assessment of lactic acid production and isolation - a review

Abstract: The majority of commodity plastics is made from petroleum-based chemicals. Lactic acid serves as a monomer for the production of the biodegradable polymer polylactic acid (PLA). This paper provides a review on the state of the art production and isolation process for lactic acid. Problems in production and isolation have been identified, the relevant results in optimized production are presented in the first part of the paper. In the second part, a decision matrix is used as a guideline for the discussion on t… Show more

“…Moreover, preparation methods of LA include chemical synthesis and microbial fermentation. The sustainable production of LA makes it potential to replace some petrochemicals . Inspired by above researches, we expect that the esterification of SA with LA will also be a promising idea to regulate phase transition temperature so that the novel PCMs could be used in wide low‐temperature heat transfer systems.…”

“…The lactic acid has a variety of applications in the food industry, in the biochemical industry for cosmetic and textile production, and also in the production of new biodegradable and biocompatible polylactic products. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] The control objective for the two-stage CSTRs structure is to adjust the plant's load to convert the glucose into lactic acid via fermentation. More precisely, the control goal is to maintain the process at certain operating points corresponding to maximum lactic production rate and minimum residual glucose concentration.…”
