Industrial Enzyme Applications in Biorefineries for Starchy Materials

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Advances in Enzyme Biotechnology

Abstract

This chapter reviews recent advances in technology developments in biorefinery industries through enzymatic approaches where various starchy materials have been used as feedstock for biofuel and various syrup productions. It further discusses the enzymes discovery, industrial challenges, and how enzymatic-based approaches help different industries to develop environmentally sustainable and cost-effective solutions by making industrial process into more simplified without compromising the product and by-product yields and their qualities.
