L-Lysine evaporation process

Amino acid L-Lysine is used as a medicament as it is essential for human and animal nutrient. L-Lysine is produced by microbial fermentation in bioreactors and concentrated by evaporation.

Download our application note and learn how, by utilizing real-time concentration measurements by Vaisala Polaris™ Refractometer, pharmaceutical manufacturers can:

• Control evaporation processes to a precise concentration level
• Monitor fermentation reactions
• Control crystallization
• Control L-Lysine grade after crystallization
• Control mother liquor feed during concentration in the by-product line
• Control by-product concentrations
• Measure final by-product concentration before storage

The application note explains in more detail the benefits of using refractive index in pharmaceutical manufacturing and why refractometer is ideal for L-Lysine production. The note also includes recommended installation points for best performance.
