Abstract

A promising biotechnological route for the production of adipic acid from renewables has been evaluated, applying a systematic methodology for process network synthesis and optimization. The method allows organizing in a structured database the available knowledge from different sources (preliminary scientific studies, techno-economic process specifications), generating a network of process alternatives and solving it as a MILP. The best processing route provides also an estimate of the production cost of bio-adipic acid at the current state of the art, assessing the sensitivity of the results to the change of the production scenarios (e.g. improvement of bacterial productivity). Thus, this method can support R&D strategy definition, targeting the research efforts on precise short-term objectives, set by the full-scale process feasibility.
