Citric acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula HOC(CO2H)(CH2CO2H)2. It is a colorless weak organic acid. It occurs naturally in citrus fruits. In biochemistry, it is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, which occurs in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms.More than two million tons of citric acid are manufactured every year. It is used widely as an acidifier, as a flavoring, and a chelating agent.
A citrate is a derivative of citric acid; that is, the salts, esters, and the polyatomic anion found in solution. An example of the former, a salt is trisodium citrate; an ester is triethyl citrate. When part of a salt, the formula of the citrate anion is written as C6H5O3−7 or C3H
5O(COO)3−3.

3, for environmental protection industry
Citric acid – sodium citrate buffer is used for flue gas desulfurization.China is rich in coal resources, which is the main part of energy. However, there is a lack of effective flue gas desulfurization technology, which leads to serious pollution of atmospheric SO2.Citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution is a desulfurization absorbent with high development value because of its low vapor, non-toxic, stable chemical properties and high SO2 absorption rate.
- Used in feed industry
Adding citric acid in the feed of piglets can wean early and increase feed utilization rate by 5% ~ 10%. Adding citric acid in the diet of growing and finishing pigs can increase daily gain, reduce feed to meat ratio, increase protein digestibility, reduce back fat thickness, and improve meat quality and carcass characteristics.
- Used in cosmetics industry
Citric acid belongs to a kind of fruit acid, main effect is to accelerate cutin update, often used at emulsion, milk cream, shampoo essence, beautiful white things, anti aging things, whelk things.The regeneration of cutin is helpful to the peeling off of the skin’s medium melanin, the narrowing of pores, and the dissolution of blackheads.
- Used in pharmaceutical industry
Citric acid must have calcium ions in the formation of prothrombin activator and subsequent coagulation process.Citrate ions and calcium ions can form a soluble complex difficult to dissociate, thus reducing the concentration of calcium ions in blood, so that blood coagulation is blocked.It can be used as an in vitro anticoagulant in blood transfusion or laboratory blood samples.
