Efficiency Analysis of Crude Versus Pure Cellulase in Industry

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Biofuel Production Technologies: Critical Analysis for Sustainability

Part of the book series: Clean Energy Production Technologies ((CEPT))

Abstract

Many industries including fermentation, pulp and paper industry, brewing sector, fermentation, food and animal feed industry, and detergent and textile use cellulases due to its environment benign and sustainable process. Academic and industrial researches are being done and still ongoing on cellulases due to its enormous industrial application and make these processes green. In this article, extensive review is performed on the use of cellulases in the industrial sector in both crude and pure form. It has been observed that crude cellulases are preferred in the industrial sector due to its low cost and stimulate the process using impurities present in enzymes. Pure cellulases are mainly used in laboratories and are case specific as they are costly to use in industries.
