Saudi Bio-acids Co has announced plans to set up a citric acid plant in the west of the kingdom, Reuters has reported. Production will start with more than 20,000 metric tonnes of citric acid, which is mainly used in soft drinks, from 2013 and would rise to 40,000 by 2016, the company said. The firm has asked for help from a Saudi development fund to cover half of the expected costs.
