Acids play an important role in various industrial applications, from manufacturing to cleaning and purifying. They are widely used in a variety of industries, including chemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries, among others.
Chemical industry: Acids are used in the production of a wide range of chemicals, including fertilizers, synthetic fibers, plastics, and detergents. For example, sulfuric acid is used in the production of fertilizers and detergents, while hydrochloric acid is used in the production of plastics. Food and beverage industry: Acids are used in the production of many different food and beverage products. For example, citric acid is used as a preservative and flavor enhancer, while phosphoric acid is used in soft drinks. Pharmaceutical industry: Acids are used in the production of many different pharmaceutical products, including medicines and supplements. For example, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid are used to adjust the pH of medicines and supplements. Agricultural industry: Acids are used in the production of fertilizers, herbicides, and insecticides. For example, nitric acid is used in the production of fertilizers, while sulfuric acid is used in the production of herbicides. Cleaning and purifying: Acids are used to clean and purify surfaces, equipment, and materials in various industries. For example, hydrochloric acid is used to remove rust and scale from metal surfaces, while sulfuric acid is used to purify metals.
It's important to note that the use of acids in industrial applications requires proper handling and safety precautions to prevent harm to workers and the environment. Acids can be corrosive and potentially hazardous, so it's important to follow proper procedures for their storage, handling, and disposal.

Inorganic acids

Inorganic acids for a variety of applications
Mineral acids are used in many areas of the chemical industry as raw materials for the synthesis of other organic and inorganic chemicals. Large quantities of these acids - especially sulfuric acid, nitric acid and hydrochloric acid - are produced for commercial use in large plants. Hydrochloric acid is one of the most important inorganic acids in the chemical industry. It is used, for example, in ore processing, but also for cleaning tools or pickling and etching in metal processing. Last but not least, hydrochloric acid is an important reagent in chemical analysis. In addition to hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid is another important basic chemical in industry. It is used in the manufacture of products such as fertilizers, rayon, medicines, dyes and detergents. Mineral acids are also used directly because of their corrosive properties. For example, a dilute hydrochloric acid solution is used to remove scale from the interior of boilers, with precautions being taken to prevent the acid from corroding the boiler. This process is called descaling.

Organic acids
Products by MCAS
Organic acids for industrial, food and pharmaceutical applications
As acidic compounds, organic acids are characteristic components of a large number of natural substances. An important group are the fruit acids, often hydroxycarboxylic acids such as citric acid or tartaric acid. Organic acids are not only used in the food industry, but also in many technical areas, e.g. for gentle pickling and surface treatment of metals, especially stainless steel, copper and brass, but also in various applications such as smoothing silk or setting plaster. Due to their special properties, there are also many possible applications in pharmacy and cosmetics, often as a natural preservative.
