A byproduct of the krebs cycle/citric acid cycle is carbon dioxide.
carbon dioxide
Carbon Dioxide is produced during the Kreb cycle (also called the citric acid cycle).
The waste product of the Krebs cycle is carbon dioxide (CO2). CO2 is produced during the process of cellular respiration as a byproduct of the oxidation of acetyl-CoA molecules.

Ethyl alcohol fermentation and the Krebs cycle >>NovaNet
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) molecules are given off as waste gas in the Krebs cycle.
CO2 is produced during the Krebs cycle as a byproduct of decarboxylation reactions that occur when citrate is converted to isocitrate, isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate, and alpha-ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA. These decarboxylation reactions release carbon dioxide as a waste product.
Citric acid cycle
The CO2 produced by the Krebs cycle is a waste product; it is disposed of as waste. In humans, we breath in oxygen with our lungs, use that oxygen in cellular respiration, and breath out the waste CO2. It should be noted that air is not made entirely of Oxygen and carbon dioxide, and that our bodies are not efficient enough to consume all of the available oxygen in each breath, and that therefore, what humans exhale is not 100% CO2.
