Updated Reports Examining Lactic Acid Manufacturing Costs

Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Lactic Acid production costs. Each Intratec Commodity Production Cost report listed below is a comprehensive study of a specific Lactic Acid production process and related Lactic Acid production costs, covering three key aspects:

  • A complete description of the Lactic Acid production process examined
  • An in-depth analysis of the related Lactic Acid plant capital cost (Capex)
  • An evaluation of the respective Lactic Acid plant operating costs (Opex)

All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q4 2024).

Lactic Acid from Glucose (Conventional Fermentation + Solvent Extraction with CO2)

This report provides a feasibility study of Lactic Acid production from glucose syrup in the United States using a fermentation process. This process is similar to Cargill process. In this case, Lactic Acid is recovered by means of trialkylamine solvent extraction in the presence of carbon dioxide.

Details: 100 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue A   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 100 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

Lactic Acid from Raw Sugar (Conventional Fermentation + Solvent Extraction with CO2)

This report provides a feasibility study of Lactic Acid production from raw sugar in Germany using a fermentation process. This process is similar to Cargill process. Raw sugar is initially hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugars), which are fermented to Lactic Acid. In this case, Lactic Acid is recovered by means of trialkylamine solvent extraction in the presence of carbon dioxide.
