Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of bio-based Acrylic Acid production from glucose syrup using a direct fermentation process. The process examined is similar to the speculative process proposed by the Delft University of Technology. In this process, a biological agent is able to directly convert glucose to Acrylic Acid through an anaerobic metabolic pathway. The process uses a 70 wt% glucose-water syrup as raw material and the final product obtained is Glacial Acrylic Acid. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Straathof, A. et al., "Feasibility of Acrylic Acid Production by Fermentation", Applied Microbiology Biotechnology, 2005, 67:727-734 Keywords: Bioacrylic Acid, Anaerobic Fermentation, Dextrose, Propenoic Acid, Unsaturated Carboxylic Acid, Green Acrylic Acid, Renewable Feedstock
