Acetic acid or ethanoic acid is a carboxylic acid, is the oldest organic acid exists from the ancient history. In general, Acetic acid is commonly called as vinegar which contains around 4% acetic acid produced by acetic acid bacteria, Acetobacter and Gluconobacter. The acetic acid is generally regarded as safe and as a versatile compound it has diverge application in many industrial sectors which made the demand and supply of acetic acid in increasing annually. The acetic acid are produced either by chemical or biological route. In biochemical process either surface or submerged fermentation process is carried out. Various renewable substrates like kitchen waste and dairy waste are employed to for the effective production of acetic acid by biological route and it also helps reduce the waste and minimizes the environmental pollution.
