The sequential production of bioethanol and lactic acid from starch materials and lignocellulosic materials was investigated as ethanol fermentation broth (EFB) can provide nutrients for lactic acid bacteria. A complete process was developed, and all major operations are discussed, including ethanol fermentation, broth treatment, lactic acid fermentation, and product separation. The effect of process parameters, including ethanol fermentation conditions, treatment methods, and the amount of EFB used in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF), is investigated. Under the selected process conditions, the integrated process without additional chemical consumption provides a 1.08 acid/alcohol ratio (the broth containing 22.4 g/L ethanol and 47.6 g/L lactic acid), which corresponds to a polysaccharide utilization ratio of 86.9 %. Starch ethanol can thus promote cellulosic lactic acid by providing important nutrients for lactic acid bacteria, and in turn, cellulosic lactic acid could promote starch ethanol by improving the profit of the ethanol production process. Two process alternatives for the integration of starch ethanol and cellulosic lactic acid are compared, and some suggestions are given regarding the reuse of yeast following the cellulosic SSF step for lactic acid production.
