INTRODUCTION
• Citric acid– Citric acid is a week organic acid found in citrus fruits
– Molecular formula is C6H8O7 and belongs to the carboxylic acids groups
– Stronger acid compared to other typical carboxylic acid .Produced by fermentation and suitable pH is around 3-6
• Application In Industry– Beverages
– Food
– Pharmaceutical
– Agriculture
– Metal Industry Structural Formula of Citric Acid

SOURCE OF RAW MATERIALS
Beet Molasses• the source of sugar for microbial
production of citric acid
• low cost and high sugar content
• low content of trace metals
• acts as carbon source of the fermentation
Microorganism• mycomycetes of A.niger species
can produce high yield
• consequence of incomplete respiration
Aspergillus Niger• filamentous ascomycete fungus
• maintained at pH 4.5 and temperature at 5 °C
• The best strain for citric acid production
• Scientific classification of A.niger
Domain Eucaryotes
Kingdom Fungi
Phylum Ascomycota
Subphylum Pezizomycotina
Class Eurotiomycetes
Order Eurotiales
Family Trichocomaceae
Genus Aspergillus
Species A.Niger

DEMAND AND SUPPLY
• The high demand in citric acid is the wide usage as acidulent in food and beverage industry.
• In the 1980s, U.S.A has been the leading country in producing citric acid. But, in the year of 1995, the Chinese production volume of citric acid has surpasses that of United States (Connor 2008) due to the lower cost of raw materials and the lower price of citric acid.
• In the year of 2007, worldwide annual production was approximately 1.7 million metric tons. According to Carlos (2006), the production rate of citric acid has growth of 3.5 to 4.0% per year.
