I did a quick yahoo search using "formic acid +global capacity, and I got a hit that links to SRI consulting which is a very reliable source. The abstract I read, reported a world wide consumption of 437,000 metric tons in 2003. I would assume then that global capacity must be at or slightly above that number.
