Product Description:
Citric acid, also known by its molecular formula C₆H₈O₇, is a vital
weak organic acid. It exists as a colorless crystal with no
discernible odor and can be easily dissolved in water, resulting in
an acidic solution. In biochemistry, citric acid plays a crucial
role as an intermediate in the metabolic process known as the
citric acid cycle, which occurs in all aerobic organisms. Due to
its versatile properties, citric acid has various applications,
including being used as an acidity regulator (GB2760-2014), a
seasoning agent, and a chelating agent.

Applications:
The Food Industry
Citric acid, the most abundant organic acid produced through
biochemical methods, is a fundamental product in the fermentation
industry. It is primarily used in the food industry for various
purposes such as acid flavoring agents, solvents, buffering agents,
antioxidants, deodorizers, flavor enhancers, gelling agents, and
coloring agents. With its versatility and benefits, citric acid has
become an essential ingredient in the production of carbonated and
fruit juice drinks, as well as in pickled products. Its demand
fluctuates according to seasonal changes in climate, with about
two-thirds of the total consumption of acid flavoring agents being
attributed to citric acid.
In the realm of food additives, citric acid plays a crucial role in
maintaining and enhancing the flavor of canned fruits, especially
those with lower acidity. By adding citric acid, the pH of the
fruits can be adjusted, lowering the chances of bacterial growth
and preventing swelling and breakage that often occur in canned
fruits. In candy production, citric acid serves as an ideal acidity
agent, complementing fruit flavors. In gel foods, jams, and
jellies, citric acid helps in reducing the negative charge of
pectin, making it easier for gel formation. Even in canned
vegetables that exhibit alkaline reactions, citric acid can be used
as a pH regulator, improving their overall quality. The chelating
properties and pH regulation abilities of citric acid also make it
a valuable addition in frozen food processing, extending their
shelf life .
Metal Cleaning
Citric acid, derived from microbial fermentation, is also widely
used in the production of detergents. Its specificity and chelating
effects make it an essential component in cleaning agents. When
used practically, citric acid provides excellent results and is
considered a safe option. The raw materials used in its production
come from grains, making it a safe food-grade substance.
Furthermore, citric acid is easily biodegradable and does not cause
harm to the environment. Its strong chelating abilities,
particularly with manganese and iron ions, make it an effective
cleaning agent. It also exhibits corrosion inhibition properties,
making it gentle on the equipment being cleaned. Compared to
inorganic acids, citric acid has a relatively weak acidity, making
it less corrosive and safer to use. Its safety, reliability, and
ease of disposal make it an ideal choice for chemical cleaning,
posing minimal risk to both human health and the environment.
