Description Jump to:
The U.S. hydrochloric acid market size is estimated to reach USD 875.9 million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2025 to 2030. The growth can be attributed to the increasing consumption of HCL in the food and beverages industry as an acidifier coupled with rising demand for steel in the construction industry for manufacturing construction materials, such as metal roofing, steel beams, and mounting brackets.

The growth of the U.S. market for hydrochloric acid is attributed to the factors such as the increasing demand from the oil and gas industry and growing demand for pickling in the steel industry. Pickling is used for the removal of impurities, such as inorganic contaminants, rust or scale, stains, from ferrous metals, copper, precious metals, and aluminum alloys.

Chlorine and hydrogen are the key raw materials required for producing HCL. About 70% of the chlorine produced in the U.S. is used for manufacturing a variety of organic chemicals such as vinyl chloride monomer, glycerin, ethylene dichloride, chlorinated solvents, and glycols. Natural gas is the primary source for producing hydrogen. Hydrogen can be extracted from biomass and fossil fuel or a mix of both.

The U.S. hydrochloric acid market is moderately fragmented and manufacturers such as Olin Corporation and Occidental Petroleum have integration across the value chain to maintain consistent raw material supply and quality of the final product.

U.S. Hydrochloric Acid Market Report Highlights

  • The food processing application segment dominated the U.S. hydrochloric acid industry and accounted for the largest revenue share of 29.7% in 2024. HCL is used in food processing to process a variety of products. It is used to produce corn syrup, soy sauce, and other products
  • The calcium chloride segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% over the forecast period, owing to its role in producing calcium chloride, which is widely used for de-icing roads and as a desiccant.
  • The California hydrochloric acid market dominated the U.S. market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 60.3% in 2024.
  • The hydrochloric acid market in New Mexico is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% over the forecast period, owing to the rising oil and gas production activities.
