Lactide Production Costs - Q2 2023
Lactide Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Lactide is a lactone cyclic di-ester, derived from lactic acid, and has three stereoisomers (L,L-Lactide; D,D-Lactide; and D,L-Lactide). All forms are colorless or white solids, solubles in chloroform and methanol, and slightly soluble in benzene. Upon contact with water, it is hydrolysed to lactic acid.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Lactide production costs. Each study describes an industrial plant, including main process units and site infrastructure, and presents an independent analysis of capital and operating costs. All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q2 2023).
Lactide Production
This report approaches the economics of producing Lactide from lactic acid in the United States. This process can be divided into two mains steps. First, lactic acid is polymerized into low molecular weight oligomers. Subsequently, the oligomers depolymerize generating Lactide, which is further purified to remove water and unreacted lactic acid and oligomers.
Details: 75 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Lactide E11A target a 75 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
