A method of production of malic acid includes treating a first intermediate product to form a second intermediate product. The treating includes substantially removing impurities from the first intermediate product to obtain a treated intermediate product by gas stripping the crude maleic anhydride, or subjecting a mixture of one or more of the crude maleic acid, the crude fumaric acid, and the vent gas scrubber solution obtained from a phthalic anhydride production process or a maleic anhydride production process to crystallization, passing an aqueous solution of the treated intermediate product through a carbon column to substantially remove retained impurities to form the second intermediate product, obtaining a feed that includes the second intermediate product, and causing the feed to undergo hydration reaction in a tubular reactor or a continuous stirred tank reactor to produce malic acid.

The presented invention relates to crystalline Form A and Form B of Bempedoic acid, a process for preparation thereof and a composition comprising the Form A or Form B.

A process for production of malic acid includes obtaining a feed that includes one or more of crude maleic anhydride, pure maleic anhydride, crude maleic acid, crude fumaric acid, pure maleic acid, pure fumaric acid, vent gas scrubber solutions from production of maleic anhydride, and vent gas scrubber solutions from production of phthalic anhydride. The feed is passed in a tubular reactor assembly to obtain a first product stream, which includes unreacted feed and malic acid. The feed is made to undergo hydration reaction in the tubular reactor assembly for a first predetermined time period, and further hydration of the first product stream is caused in a stirred tank reactor assembly for a second predetermined time period to obtain a final product stream, which includes the malic acid.
