By type, citric acid dominates the acidity regulators market, followed by phosphoric acid.

Beverages are the largest segment in which acidity regulators are largely used. Sauces, dressings, and condiments are the second largest application market for food acidity regulators. Processed food forms the third largest segment in which acidity regulators are used as food additive.

Influx of modern technology Many manufacturers for the production and processing of food acids have invented various extraction techniques. Indigenously, conventional methods were followed for the production of acids which in turn gave a moderate production of certain acids. Initially, almost all the acids were extracted by natural fermentation but with an increasing demand this scenario has changed with a use of various modern technologies (namely methanol carbonylation, oxidative fermentation, acetaldehyde oxidation). Keeping in view this increasing demand, manufacturers are reviving investments in capacity and facility expansions. As a competitive need, manufacturers are not only adopting innovative and path breaking technologies but also are providing competitive edge to the companies to enhance their profit margins. http://www.marketsandmarkets.com/Market-Reports/food-acidulants-market1072.html

Consumer acceptance for processed foods Rise in demand for processed products and increasing consumer fondness for convenience foods and ready-to-drink beverages have aided the food acidity regulators market for a favorable growth. The increasing levels of disposable income of the consumers, and the time saved while preparing the meals necessitates a growing demand for food grade acetic and citric acid, both of which find application in the manufacture of processed foods. Acidity regulators provide stability and add to the shelf life of the chilled, frozen, dried, and canned foods. Improved availability of such foods and the growing purchasing power of consumers in the developing countries have further augmented the growth of food acidity regulators market. Growing popularity of western foods will also continue to boost this categorys performance over the forecasted period. In 1982, U.S. consumers spent 11% of grocery budget on drinks and 5.3% on other foods, according to the governments figures whereas current market data shows drinks are up slightly to 11.1% with a little less spending of 5.1% on the latter.
