Utilization of Lignocellulosic Agro-Waste as an Alternative Carbon Source for Industrial Enzyme Production

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Waste Management, Processing and Valorisation

Abstract

Waste, as a by-product of most human activities, especially of agricultural origin, contains an equivalent useful product substance that is available within it. Synthetic media used for enzyme production in biotechnology industries is becoming costlier and has become a subject of concern for many food-processing industries. Hence, manufacturers are now in search of alternative approaches to cut down the cost of production. Therefore, this review focuses on how agro-industrial wastes have been utilized as the sole carbon source for enzyme production in a solid-state fermentation culture. Similarly, the review limits its scope to enzymes produced from fungal sources only. Conclusively, the review suggests that the ability to use agro-waste as an alternative carbon source in the production of enzymes calls for its wider utilization in the food-processing industries, thus, alleviating the cost concern.
