Global lactic acid accounted for a market size of USD 3.48 billion in the year 2019 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 16 % over the forecast period. Lactic acid can be industrially synthesized by two means: chemically or microbially. Batch fermentation is commonly used to produce lactic acid. Lactonitrile is the common method for natural lactic acid synthesis. Fermentation is an energy production process in which both electron donors and electron accepters play a significant part in organic movements. Lactic acid is one of the hydroxycarboxylic acids that are most commercially important.
Its applications include bulk manufacturing of products such as Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) in industry and in single household uses such as food containers. Many inexpensive products, like starchy, cellulosic, recycled End-Uses, such as farm wastes, can be used as lactic acid raw End-Uses. The production of lactic acid from the raw End-Uses provided by bacteria and fungi is actively influenced by Microorganisms. The use of lactic acid in the production of different fermentation products not only as a raw substance but also in the food, pharmaceutical and textile industries is of great importance.

Lactic acid is also a widely used acidulant, flavouring agent, and inhibitor of bacteria, in the food pharmaceutical, preservation, and chemical industries. The ability for water preservation makes it useful in cosmetic products as a hydrator. It can be converted into valuable chemicals like bio resolves, esters, etc. due to the inclusion of hydroxyl and carboxyl groups in its composition. Lactic acid is also used in biodegradable poly lactic acid production as a monomer. Poly lactic acid (PLA) is the most recent trend in the use of lactic acid. PLA could be a potential substitute for plastics based on fossil fuels, but production costs should be reduced to half their current price, so that they can do so
