Through the Dutch Research Council (NWO) we have secured a second round of funding for a feasibility study. Using these resources, we will investigate the potential of our ecology-based L-lactate production using different feedstocks. In parallel, we will produce the first 100 mL of concentrated L-lactic acid solution. Also, we will calculate the economic performance of our process using these different feedstocks.
