What is Acetic Acid (From Molasses)?
Acetic acid is a clear and colorless liquid of a sour taste and pungent smell. Vinegar is dilute acetic acid. The most common method of commercial production of acetic acid involves molasses, a byproduct of sugarcane or sugar beet processing. This sugar is fermented by certain strains of bacteria such as Acetobacter. Fermentable sugars from molasses are bioconverted to ethanol and subsequently oxidized to acetic acid. Acetic acid produced this way from molasses is a cheaper and more sustainable alternative to acetic acid produced from fossil fuels. Since the feedstock is renewable, this process reduces the use of fossil fuels. The produced acetic acid is highly required, for example, for food preservation, but can also be used as an intermediate for chemical synthesis, textiles, and pharmaceuticals. Acetic acid produced using industrial grade molasses can be used to produce esters, acetate salts and other industrial chemicals, making it a valuable input for a bio-based chemical industry.
Market Trend and Drivers of Acetic Acid (From Molasses):
Demand for acetic acid (from molasses) comes from industries that require renewable chemicals and have to look for green alternatives to petchem-based ones, as there is a growing demand for bio-based products. This is heightened by increasing applications in the food and beverage industry, mostly as a preservative and a flavoring agent. The major use of acetic acid is as a chemical feedstock. It is the starting material for the manufacture of vinyl acetate monomer, cellulose acetate and other esters. Molasses from sugarcane has a comparatively low cost and at the same time exists within regions where sugarcane is grown. Industries are moving toward green and renewable chemicals like bio-based acetic acid production because there is increasing pressure to lower the carbon footprint and government support. Emerging economies, growth in agrochemical and textile industries, and technological advancements within fermentation processes contribute to the overall growth of the market for cobalt compounds.
