The Potential of Non-Ionic Surfactants for Extraction of Lactic Acid from Aqueous Solution

The Potential of Non-Ionic Surfactants for Extraction of Lactic Acid from Aqueous Solution

Lactic acid, an important commodity chemical for various applications, is mainly produced through fermentation. In this study, the potential of non-ionic surfactants (an alcohol ethoxylate (AE) and two alcohol alkoxylates (AAs)) as solvents for the extraction of lactic acid from aqueous solutions is...
