Abstract: Lactic acid is prepared by fermenting a carbohydrate source in the presence of a calcium hydroxide-based pH control agent that comprises from about 0.1 to about 10 wt % silica to form a fermentation broth comprising lactic acid and calcium lactate. The fermentation broth is processed by a sequence of hydrocyclones to remove silica from the feed streams to avoid fouling of equipment and to avoid damage to filtration or centrifugation equipment. The biomass component of the fermentation broth is separated out prior to acidulation of the fermentation broth, and therefore itself is a viable product for use since it can be provided without filter aid components that were previously required when the biomass was removed during acidulation. Gypsum is recovered after the acidulation step, and can be available as a product by itself, or combined with the biomass as a mixed product.
