Lactic acid is one the most interesting monomer candidates to replace some petroleum- based monomers. The application of conventional poly-lactic acid (PLA) is limited due to insufficient thermal properties. This limitation can be overcome by blending poly-D and poly-L-lactic acid. The main problem is the limited knowledge of D-lactic acid (D-LA) production. Efficient biochemical processes are being developed in order to synthesize D-LA from orange peel waste (OPW). OPW is an interesting renewable raw material for biorefinery processes of biocatalytic, catalytic or thermal nature owing to its low lignin and ash content. Bioprocessing of the pretreated OPW is carried out by enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation of the released sugars to produce D-LA. Several strains of the species Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus have been evaluated for the production of D-LA from OPW hydrolysate using Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. delbrueckii CECT 286 as a reference strain since its performance in this kind of substrate have been widely reported in previous studies. Preliminary results show that Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus CECT 5037 had the best performance with a yield of 84% w/w for D-LA production and up to 95% (e.e.).

The liquid pineapple waste contain mainly sucrose, glucose, fructose, and other nutrients. It therefore can potentiall be used as carbon source for organic acid fermentation. Recently, lactic acid has been considered to be an important raw material for production of biodegradadable lactace polymer. The experiments weree carried out in shake flash fermentation using lactobacillus delbroeckii. Effect of some parameters such as temperature, initial Ph, initial substrate concentration, yeast extract concentration and fermentation time to the yield have been studied. The highest yield was 85.65% achieved at 40 0C, PH 6.00, 52.2 g/l sugar concentration with 5 g/l yeast extract. There was no significant increasing in lactic acid production was observed if supplementation of yeast extract above 10%.Keyword : lactic acid fermentation, liquid pineapple waste, lactobacillus delbrueckii

Cellulose is almost inexhaustible source of raw material comprising at least one-third of all biomass matter. Through deconstruction of cellulose hierarchical structure can be extracted highly crystalline cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) with impressive properties. However, the main barrier in the processing of the nanocomposites based on CNC is their inhomogeneous dispersion and distribution in the non-polar polymer matrix. In this paper is this problem addressed by use of novel hydrophobic lignin coated CNC as a biobased nucleation agents in poly (lactic acid) (PLA) nanocomposites. These green nanocomposites based on natural plant derived substances have enormous potential to replace materials originated from non-renewable resources and show promise of providing degradation back into the environment when they are no longer needed. Resulted composites prepared by twin screw extrusion and injection moulding were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The addition of L-CNC (1, 2 and 3 wt. %) into PLA increased melt crystallization enthalpy and decreases the cold crystallization enthalpy. The degree of crystallinity (cc) increased from 5.6 % (virgin PLA) to 8.5 % (PLA/1-L-CNC), 10.3 % (PLA/2-L-CNC) and 10.7 % (PLA/3-L-CNC). The wide range of degradation temperatures of lignin coating has been observed starting at 100 °C.

Lactic Acid (LA) is a versatile compound with extensive industrial usage. Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are renowned for their capacity to ferment carbohydrates to LA. In the biodiesel industry, bioconversion of residual glycerol to monomers of biopolymers, such as LA, is an alternative for usage of this waste as raw material to produce a high value added biotechnological compound. This research evaluates LA production through fermentation processes using a Lactobacillus sp. native strain and raw glycerol from the biodiesel industry. Native strain was isolated from the processing of dairy, fruit, and vegetable products and through cultures in Man, Rogosa & Sharpe agar (MRS). After an adaptation phase, the fermentative capability of the strain was evaluated through chemical quantification of metabolites using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR); fermentative potential was compared with a Lactobacillus sp. reference strain (ATCC 7469). The native strain Lactobacillus sp. CYP4 showed a higher bioconversion potential (LA concentration: 39.41 mM, conversion percentage: 39.27%, at 24 h, volumetric productivity: 1.28 g.L-1.h-1, yield: 0.71 g·g-1) from raw glycerol, when compared to the reference strain.

The liquid and solid pineapple waste contain mainly sucrose, glucose,fructose, and other nutrients. It therefore can potentially be used as carbon source for fermentation to produce organic acid. Recently, lactic acid has been considered to be an important raw material for production of biodegradable lactate polymer, the experiments were carried out in batch fermentation using the liquid and solid pineapple waste to produce lactic acid. The anaerobic fermentation of lactic acis were performed at 40 0C, ph 6, 5% inocolum, and 50 rpm. Initially results show that the liquid pineapple waste by using Lactobacillus delbrueckii can be used as carbon source for lactic acid fermentation. The production of lactic acid are found to be 79% yield, while only 56% yield was produced y using solid waste.Keywords : Lactic acid fermentation, Pineapple waste, Lactobacillus delbrueckii

First, the corn starch was taken as raw material, and then it was broken down by enzymes and fermentation by lactic acid bacteria, and the poly lactic acid was obtained by chemical synthesis. Then the corn starch was taken as raw material again, the dialdehyde starch was obtained by high efficient light-catalytic reactor. Secondly, a certain percentage of dialdehyde starch and urea were mixed together to get urea-formaldehyde resin. Finally, a certain amount of polylactic acid, urea formaldehyde resins and dispersions were put together and mixed in a high-speed stirring to get urea slow release membrane materials. Experimental results showed that it needed 150-300 days degradate completely by 75% poly lactic acid sustained release membrane, while 85% needed 100 -120 days. Single thin membrane absorption test showed that per unit area of the sustained release membrane absorption ability would increase with the poly lactic acid increased, and the absorbent capacity of 85% poly lactic acid of sustained release membrane was 112 times higher than the mass of itself.

<p>Indonesia has the potential for development of PLA (Poly Lactic Acid) as biodegradable<br />packaging agroindustry due to the availability of raw material, such as tubers as a source of<br />starch and lignocellulose as a source of cellulose, but Indonesia has limitations in terms of its<br />technology. This was due to the intensity and quality of the research that has not been<br />adequate. For that condition, imitation strategies can be developed for PLA (Poly Lactic Acid)<br />agroindustry in Indonesia and the level of product imitation strategies is knockoff or cloning.<br />At that level, PLA agroindustry to be developed completely replicate existing products but have<br />other brands. With this strategy, the PLA agroindustry is expected to produce a cheaper price<br />product because of the availability of raw materials in Indonesia that easy to fine. Raw<br />material for PLA that can be selected from cassava tubers beacause its easy in cultivation and<br />cheaper among other types of bulbs. To improve competitiveness, the company who built the<br />imitation strategy needs to be managed with the application of knowledge management in<br />order to be able to last long existence.</p>
