ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Product</h6> <p><b>Technical Grade Lactic Acid</b>. Lactic Acid (a.k.a. 2-Hydroxypropanoic Acid) is an organic alpha hydroxy acid that can be found as D, L or racemic isomers (chiral molecule). Lactic acid appears as colorless to yellow odorless liquid and can be found naturally in almost every single living organism, since it is the product of anaerobic metabolism of sugar. It plays an important role on a series of biochemical processes.</p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Chemicals</b>. </p> <b>Glucose Syrup</b>. Glucose (C6H12O6), also known as D-glucose and dextrose, is the most abundant sugar in nature. Commercial glucose products are available in both dry and syrup forms in a variety of purities and concentrations. Glucose uses include pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals and fuels. This compound is used as raw material in fermentative processes for the production of vitamins, organic acids, antibiotics, amino acids, enzymes, and polysaccharides.</p> <b>Yeast Extract</b>. Yeast Extract is a natural ingredient derived from yeast cells, used as a flavor enhancer in food products and a nutrient source in biotechnology. It provides a rich umami flavor in soups, sauces, and savory snacks. Yeast extract is typically produced by autolyzing yeast cells, breaking them down into their components. It is stored as a powder or paste and is valued for its high protein content and application in food and fermentation industries.</p>
ICC - Process Schematic Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-schematics/249-G.jpg
ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises two major sections: (1) Fermentation; and (2) Product Separation.</p><p>Fermentation. The culture media used in the fermentation is prepared by diluting glucose (fermentable carbon source) and nutrients (comprised mainly of yeast extract as sources of vitamins and nitrogen). Such media is heat sterilized at 121 °C for 30 min. Then, the media is cooled to about 35 °C and fed continuously to fermentation. Lactic Acid is produced by fermentation of glucose using 'Lactobacillus rhamnosus', a homolactic organism. The fermentation is carried out in a continuous membrane based fermentation system, at temperatures ranging between 25 and 40 °C, and uncontrolled pH.</p><p>Product Separation. A continuous broth stream is withdrawn from fermenter and passed through microfiltration and nanofiltration steps. In the microfiltration step, cells are retained and recycled to the fermentation. The nanofiltration step separates Lactic Acid from unconverted sugar, which are also recycled to the fermenter. Finally, the Lactic Acid solution from nanofiltration is subjected to an evaporation step and an 80 wt% Lactic Acid with 95 wt% purity is obtained.</p><p></p>
ICC - Short Description: This report presents the economics of Lactic Acid production from glucose syrup using a speculative, continuous, low pH, fermentation process in the United States. In this process, Lactic Acid is recovered from the fermentation broth through microfiltration and nanofiltration steps, generating an 80 wt% Technical Grade Lactic Acid, with 95 wt% purity.
