Global Lactic acid is a widely used organic acid with a variety of applications across several industries. With growing demand for natural and sustainable products, the lactic acid market has been witnessing significant growth in recent years. As a result, there have been several technological advancements and upgrades in lactic acid production processes.

One of the significant technological advancements in the lactic acid market is the development of fermentation-based production methods. The traditional method of lactic acid production involves chemical synthesis, which can be energy-intensive and can produce toxic waste. The fermentation-based production method uses microorganisms to convert sugar into lactic acid. This method is more sustainable and produces less waste, making it a preferred option in the market.

Another significant development in the lactic acid market is the use of non-food-based raw materials for production. Traditionally, lactic acid has been produced using corn or other food-based raw materials. However, the increasing demand for lactic acid has led to the exploration of alternative non-food-based raw materials such as biomass, lignocellulosic material, and waste products. This development has not only reduced the dependence on food-based raw materials but has also made the production process more sustainable.

Moreover, advancements in downstream processing techniques have improved the quality and purity of lactic acid products. Newer technologies, such as membrane separation, have enabled the separation and purification of lactic acid from fermentation broth with high efficiency and low energy consumption.

Furthermore, the use of genetic engineering has been explored to enhance lactic acid production. Microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis have been modified to improve lactic acid production efficiency and yield.
