Organic compounds with acidic properties are organic acids. Carboxylic acids are the most common type of commercially used organic acids, with carboxylic acids comprising a long carbon chain carboxyle group. Organic acids generated by substituting one hydroxyle group in sulfuric acid are sulfonic acids such as toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, etc. Carboxylic acids are weak organic acids, while sulphonic acids are among the strongest available acids. Among several other commonly used organic acids are acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, and uric acid. Certain organic acids are produced by the several microorganisms fermentation process and are typically used in the food and beverage industry.

Organic acids are also synthetically produced on a wide scale for a number of commercial applications including catalysts, surfactants, and colorants, among others. Formaldehyde is used as an antimicrobial agent in making organic acids. Glycerin is utilized as an energy source in the production of organic acids. Some of the other feedstocks used in organic acid production include amino acids, oil, sulfuric acid, enzymes, proteins, acid salts and so on. In order to increase their shelf life, most food products are infused with preservatives.
Organic acids are widely used to regulate food acid content, and enhance the flavor of the food. Most manufacturers prefer to use natural preservatives, as consumers have developed from buyers with low to high involvement. In addition, they are willing to spend more on products with greater natural content.
Highlights of Organic Acids Market
The acetic acid segment accounted for the largest share on the organic acid market, based on the product type. Citric acid is also expected to have a substantial market share over the forecast period. Acetic acid is mainly used in the food and beverage industries because of its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. Bakery and confectionery industries use citric acid and acetic acid to prevent bacterial and fungal growth in their products.
Based on the Application, Food & beverage application segment accounted for the largest share in the organic acids market in 2017. Organic acids are used extensively in food & beverages industries owing to its act as buffers to regulate acidity, antioxidants, preservatives, and flavor enhancers in food-grade products. Although organic acids have been used for many years to counteract pathogens in food, there is a significant need to assess and improve their continuing effectiveness and sustainability. Due to its functional properties such as lactic acid is commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry, high growth in the pharmaceutical industry is also fuelling demand for organic acids.
Asia Pacific accounts for the largest market share and during the forecast period is expected to register the highest CAGR. Market growth for organic acids can be attributed to growing consumption of processed food and growing disposable income. Increasing consumer awareness of this region’s consumption of natural organic acid can be attributed to its largest market share for that market. Many big players have established their production facilities in this region.
