Production of Lactic Acid from Potato Waste

            Traditionally, there are two methods for commercially producing lactic acid. Production methods include either chemical synthesis or carbohydrate fermentation from a substrate. Chemical synthesis involves chemical reactions that require plastic based products such as lactonitrate and acetaldehyde for production of lactic acid (Huang, 2005, p. 265). Chemical synthesis of lactic acid is a man-made process that can’t occur naturally.   In contrast, carbohydrate fermentation is a natural process for producing lactic acid.  Although it is a natural process, it can be controlled and enhanced for commercial purposes.  Carbohydrate fermentation involves biological reactions that convert simple sugars into lactic acid using living orgasms. This process requires a substrate containing some form of carbohydrate.

            Potato waste is an excellent source for these carbohydrates.  Its main component is starch, which…..

Revised again to increase readability according the the Flesch Reading Ease Scale:

We have two ways to make lactic acid: chemical or fermentation.  The chemical process needs products made from plastic. On the other hand, fermentation is a natural process. It can be controlled to make large amounts. It converts sugars to lactic acid by using live life forms. Potato waste makes a good source of the sugars because it is made from starch.
