Enzymes as Catalysts in Industrial Biocatalysis: Advances in Engineering, Applications, and Sustainable Integration
2025
Overview
Enzymes are highly selective and efficient biological catalysts that play a critical role in modern industrial biocatalysis. Their ability to operate under mild conditions and reduce environmental impact makes them ideal alternatives to conventional chemical catalysts. This review provides a comprehensive overview of advances in enzyme-based catalysis, focusing on enzyme classification, engineering strategies, and industrial applications. The six major enzyme classes—hydrolases, oxidoreductases, transferases, lyases, isomerases, and ligases—are discussed in the context of their catalytic roles across sectors such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, textiles, biofuels, and environmental remediation. Recent developments in protein engineering, including directed evolution, rational design, and computational modeling, have significantly enhanced enzyme performance, stability, and substrate specificity. Emerging tools such as machine learning and synthetic biology are accelerating the discovery and optimization of novel enzymes. Progress in enzyme immobilization techniques and reactor design has further improved process scalability, reusability, and operational robustness. Enzyme sourcing has expanded from traditional microbial and plant origins to extremophiles, metagenomic libraries, and recombinant systems. These advances support the integration of enzymes into green chemistry and circular economy frameworks. Despite challenges such as enzyme deactivation and cost barriers, innovative solutions continue to emerge. Enzymes are increasingly enabling cleaner, safer, and more efficient production pathways across industries, supporting the global shift toward sustainable and circular manufacturing.
