Because citric acid has a mild and refreshing sour taste, it is widely used in the manufacture of various beverages, soft drinks, wine, candy, snacks, biscuits, canned juice, dairy products and other foods. In the market of all organic acids, the market share of citric acid is more than 70%. So far, there is no sour agent that can replace citric acid. One molecule of crystalline water citric acid is mainly used as an acidic flavoring agent for refreshing beverages, fruit juices, jams, fruit candies and canned food, and can also be used as an antioxidant for edible oils. At the same time, it improves the sensory properties of food, enhances appetite and promotes the digestion and absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the body. Anhydrous citric acid is used in large quantities in solid beverages. Citric acid salts such as calcium citrate and ferric citrate are calcium and iron fortifiers in certain foods. Esters of citric acid, such as triethyl citrate, can be used as non-toxic plasticizers to manufacture plastic films for food packaging, acidulants and preservatives in beverage and food industries.
