LACTIC ACID
In the fermentation industry, lactic acid is commonly used to control pH levels and improve the purity of fermentation products. During fermentation, microorganisms like bacteria or yeast produce acids that can lower the pH of the medium, potentially inhibiting growth or affecting the final product's quality. Lactic acid is used to precisely adjust and maintain the pH at optimal levels for microbial activity, ensuring efficient fermentation processes.
Additionally, lactic acid helps in increasing the purity of the fermentation product by preventing the growth of unwanted microorganisms. By lowering the pH, it creates an unfavorable environment for contaminants, thereby enhancing the yield and purity of the desired fermentation product, whether it be biofuels, organic acids, or other biochemical substances. This pH regulation also optimizes enzyme activity and metabolic pathways, improving overall fermentation efficiency. Lactic acid's biodegradable and non-toxic nature makes it a safe and environmentally friendly solution for controlling pH and maintaining the quality of fermented products.

Lactic acid is a highly effective cleaning agent due to its ability to break down mineral deposits, dirt, and stains. As a mild organic acid, it can dissolve calcium carbonate, lime scale, and other inorganic substances commonly found in industrial equipment, pipes, and surfaces. It is often used in household cleaners, industrial cleaning solutions, and descaling products. Lactic acid's cleaning power is enhanced by its biodegradability and non-toxic nature, making it a safer alternative to harsher chemical cleaners. Additionally, it is effective in removing organic stains, such as those found in food processing areas, without damaging surfaces.
