Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of bio-based Acrylic Acid production from raw sugar using a fermentation process. The process examined is similar to Cargill process. In this process, raw sugar (sucrose) is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugars). The invert sugars are then fermented to produce 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HPA), which is dehydrated to produce Acrylic Acid. The final product obtained is Glacial Acrylic Acid. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 20140364643, issued to Cargill in 2014 Keywords: Dextrose, Anaerobic Fermentation, Salt-Splitting, Tridecylamine, Propenoic Acid
