Global a-Ketoglutaric Acid Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032

The global α-Ketoglutaric Acid market size is expected to reach $ 222 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 6.9% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

α-Ketoglutaric Acid is an organic compound with a chemical formula of C5H6O5. The molecule contains a carbonyl group (keto group) and a carboxyl group. It plays an important role in organisms and is an intermediate product of certain metabolic pathways, especially in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle or Kern ring).

In the tricarboxylic acid cycle, α-ketoglutarate acts as an intermediate product and reacts with oxidative decarboxylase to oxidize the carbon atom on the carbonyl group and release carbon dioxide (CO2), thereby generating energy and electron donors. This process is part of the breakdown of nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into energy.

Global key players of α-Ketoglutaric Acid include SFI Health (Klaire Labs), TNJ Chemical Industry, Evonik Industries AG, Spectrum Chemical, etc. The top four players hold a share over 40%.

In terms of product type, food grade is the largest segment, occupied for a share of 65%.
