Ammonium Ferric Citrate Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth 2024

Ammonium
ferric citrate is a reddish brown colored crystalline powder. Ammonium
ferric citrate is totally soluble in water but insoluble in alcohol.
Ammonium ferric citrate is prepared by reaction of ferric hydroxide with
aqueous solution of citric acid and ammonia. Ammonium ferric citrate is
a multi-functional compound, which serves many end-user industries such
as food & beverage, pharmaceutical, photographic printing,
wastewater management and metal processing among others. Ammonium ferric
citrate is used as a food additive during food & beverage
processing for the purpose of acid regulation and as an iron supplement.
The pharmaceutical industry employs ammonium ferric citrate as an
intermediate in drug processing and as a contrast agent in medical
imaging. Ammonium ferric citrate acts as a reducing agent thus
suppressing salt formation in metals such as gold and silver. Moreover,
ammonium ferric citrate is used for water purification and to make blue
prints required in printing process.

The
demand for ammonium ferric citrate is driven by increased consumption
in pharmaceutical and food & beverage industries. Food &
beverage industry uses ammonium ferric citrate for making iron
supplementary beverages. These supplements are generally given to
children having iron deficiency. Iron deficiency affects the physical as
well as mental growth in children which ultimately results in diseases
such as anemia and other abnormalities. Ammonium ferric citrate on
consumption easily synthesizes into iron and gets readily absorbed into
the blood. Moreover, ammonium ferric citrate acts as an acid regulator
for changing or neutralizing the pH levels, hence is suitably used in
manufacturing of food products. In pharmaceutical industry, ammonium
ferric citrate is used mainly in medical imaging. Ammonium ferric
citrate acts as a contrast agent, which improves the visibility of blood
vessels for better health diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging and
X-ray attenuation techniques are considered as major medical imaging
applications for ammonium ferric citrate.
In
terms of global demand, Asia Pacific is likely to show the fastest
growth for ammonium ferric citrate by the end of forecast period. Demand
for ammonium ferric citrate is expected to grow, owing to increasing
developments in pharmaceutical industry among other end-users. China is
currently one of the major producer and distributor of ammonium ferric
citrate. China distributes ammonium ferric citrate to various regions
such as Europe and South America. Meanwhile, India has good
international market for ammonium ferric citrate, owing to its good
distribution network mainly in North America. China is likely to lead
followed by India and Japan by the end of 2020. Other Asia Pacific
countries including Singapore and Vietnam are anticipated to have
emerging ammonium ferric citrate market, in the coming years.
Considering the food additives market, present scenario reflects no
threat of replacement for ammonium ferric citrate, which can be
considered as a driving factor for the growth of ammonium ferric
citrate. Owing to such a situation, India is expected to lead by the end
of forecast period. Rest of the world region is anticipated to
illustrate a slow paced growth in demand for ammonium ferric citrate
over the coming years. Brazil and South Africa are expected to provide
better opportunities for the ammonium ferric citrate market by 2024.
North America and Europe are expected to depict a sluggish growth by
2024, owing to their established markets and heavy regulations on
production of ammonium ferric citrate.
Some
of the major players dominating the ammonium ferric citrate market
include Shreenath Chemicals, West Bengal Chemical Industries Limited,
New Alliance Dye Chemicals Private Limited and Eminenco Pharma Limited.
