Within the field of biochemistry, citric acid serves as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, also known as the tricarboxylic acid cycle. This process plays a vital role in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms.
Citric acid is widely used for its various properties, including as an acidity regulator (according to GB2760-2014 standards), seasoning agent, and chelating agent. Its versatile nature makes it a valuable compound in many industries.

Citric acid is the most widely produced organic acid in the world, primarily through biochemical methods. It is a fundamental product in the fermentation industry, with extensive use in the food industry. It serves as an acidifier, solvent, buffer, antioxidant, deodorant, flavor enhancer, gelling agent, and coloring agent. It is also an essential component in carbonated drinks, fruit juice drinks, lactic acid drinks, pickled products, and candies, with its demand influenced by seasonal climate changes. Citric acid is responsible for about 2/3 of the total consumption of acid flavoring agents. It is used in canned fruits to maintain or enhance flavor, increase acidity, inhibit bacterial growth, and prevent spoilage. Its acidic properties also make it an ideal addition to candies, gel foods, jams, and jellies. In the processing of canned vegetables, using citric acid as a pH regulator not only serves as a seasoning agent but also preserves the quality of the vegetables. Its chelating properties and pH regulation abilities also make it effective in preserving frozen foods.
Citric acid, which is produced through microbial fermentation, is widely used in the production of detergents. Its specificity and chelating effects make it a crucial component in this industry. Citric acid is highly valued for its safety, as it is derived from food-grade microorganisms found in grains. Moreover, citric acid is easily biodegradable and has minimal negative impact on the environment. Its chelating abilities, particularly with manganese and iron ions, make it an effective cleaning agent. Compared to inorganic acids, citric acid has relatively weak acidity, making it less corrosive and safer for equipment. The safety and reliability of citric acid make it a popular choice for chemical cleaning, with minimal harm to the environment and human health.
