L-Lysine Sulfate Production from Glucose - Cost Analysis - Lysine E31A
Description:... This report presents a cost analysis of L-Lysine Sulfate production from glucose syrup using a conventional fermentation process
In the process examined, a 70 wt% glucose-water syrup is fermented to produce L-Lysine. The entire fermentation broth is concentrated and the final product obtained is the sulfate salt of L-Lysine (containing 55 wt% of free L-Lysine) along with other solid constituents from fermentation.
