Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of 1,3-Propanediol (PDO) production from raw sugar using a fermentation process. The process examined is similar to DuPont process. In this process, raw sugar (sucrose) is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugars). The invert sugars are then fermented to produce Propanediol. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 7745184, issued to DuPont and Genencor in 2010 (2) US Patent 6479716, issued to Archer-Daniels-Midland in 2002 Keywords: Bio-PDO, Trimethylene Glycol, Polytrimethylene Terephthalate, PTT, Aerobic Fermentation, Tate and Lyle
