Since 2009, L-arginine industry in China has enjoyed development with a CAGR of output exceeding 15%. Up to 2011, the capacity of L-arginine has come to about 6,500t/a.
With technology improvement, biological fermentation method is getting popular. However, China still lags behind developed countries in terms of the application of this method, and the operating rate of production lines adopting this method is low. Then, how is the production technology of L-arginine in China on earth?
High production cost leads to the high price of L-arginine in China. The cost of its raw materials takes up the lion’s share of the total cost. Therefore, the supply of raw materials plays an important part in L-arginine production.
