Abstract:  : Lactic acid( LA) is a  precious platform chemical with different  operations in food, medicinals, cosmetics, and biodegradable plastics. Its polymer, polylactic acid( PLA), serves as an eco-friendly  volition to petroleum- grounded plastics, adding  the demand for sustainable LA  product. Sugarcane bagasse, a lignocellulosic derivate, offers a sustainable feedstock for LA product, aligning with indirect frugality principles. contemporaneous Saccharification and Co-Fermentation( SSCF) integrates enzymatic hydrolysis and microbial  turmoil,  perfecting process  effectiveness. Advances in alkali and hydrothermal pretreatment  styles have enhanced sugar release, while lactic acid bacteria( LAB) with advanced acid forbearance and substrate application have boosted  turmoil  effectiveness. This review highlights advancements in SSCF for LA product from sugarcane bagasse, addressing  crucial challenges and  unborn perspectives for optimizing bioprocessing strategies to support sustainable bio-based  diligence.
