1. Fermentation: Microorganisms (e.g., Corynebacterium glutamicum) ferment sugars to produce glutamic acid.

2. Purification: The glutamic acid is separated, filtered, and purified.

3. Neutralization: The glutamic acid is reacted with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to form monosodium glutamate.

4. Crystallization & Drying: The MSG is crystallized, washed, and dried to obtain the final product.
