L‑lactic acid, the raw material for the biodegradable polymer polylactic acid, exhibits excellent biocompatibility, antimicrobial properties, and pH‑buffering capacity, making it widely used in the biodegradable materials industry, as well as in feed, food, and industrial applications. With vast application prospects and a substantial market potential, it offers significant social value and economic benefits.

Pliith Biotechnology Co., Ltd. was established in May 2021. Building on the “Next-Generation Polylactic Acid Industrialization Technology” developed by the Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun, the company has positioned polylactic acid industrialization at its core and adopted a full‑chain approach to research, production, and sales, spanning the entire value chain from biomass through lactic acid to lactide and ultimately to polylactic acid. Its fully automated L‑lactic acid production facility officially commenced feedstock input in September 2023, and as of March 2024 has completed commissioning and product validation tests for multiple product lines, including food‑grade and material‑grade varieties, enabling it to… It is widely used in the biodegradation industry, as well as in feed, food, and industrial applications.




Lactic Acid R&D Center




Pliith Biotechnology Co., Ltd.’s Lactic Acid R&D Center collaborates with renowned research institutes, universities, and enterprises to advance technological research and innovation, developing cutting-edge green manufacturing technologies and processes for L‑lactic acid. These efforts aim to achieve energy conservation, emission reduction, and resource recycling, thereby fully supporting the nation’s “dual carbon” strategy and food security strategy. As of March 2024, the company has mastered a number of key technologies, including but not limited to:

Sodium Salt Process for the Production of L-Lactic Acid

Low-pH Fermentation Technology for L-Lactic Acid Production

Technology for Producing L-Lactic Acid from Crop Straw via Sugar Fermentation

Carbon Dioxide–Driven Synthetic Biology Technology


Technical Features and Applications







By employing a dual-enzyme approach and next-generation lactic acid bacterial strains, the sugar‑to‑acid conversion rate and the optical purity of lactic acid are significantly enhanced, while the sugar‑production and fermentation cycles are shortened.


Jointly develop internationally advanced decolorization, membrane filtration, evaporation, and purification technologies to significantly reduce energy consumption and enhance lactic acid yield.


Application areas

Feed industry

Used in feed as a growth promoter, antibacterial agent, and preservative; enhances animal immunity, inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and extends the shelf life of feed.

Food industry

It is used as an acidulant, antimicrobial agent, and pH regulator in products such as dairy products, meat products, alcoholic beverages, and seasonings.

Industrial sector

It is used as a degumming agent for photovoltaic silicon wafers, as a stabilizer in electroless plating, and as an organic solvent in the semiconductor industry, among other applications.

Other fields

Lactic acid is also widely used in the pharmaceutical, personal care, and leather industries, and can be further processed into derivatives such as lactic acid salts and lactic acid esters.


CHINAPLA The 2024 International Plastics and Rubber Exhibition will be held on On April 23, 2024, at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, China, Pliith Biotechnology Co., Ltd. cordially invites you to join us in experiencing this premier international rubber and plastics event.
