Biocatalysts are defined as substances of biological (non-human) origin, which possess the ability to catalyse a broad spectrum of reactions. They are organic, biodegradable and have high catalytic efficiency along with the ability to operate under mild conditions. Owing to this, they are used for various industrial and commercial applications.
The market is currently being driven by a number of favourable factors. Due to advancements in technology and the environment-friendly nature of biocatalysts, their use has expanded rapidly. Traditionally used to convert biologically derived (or renewable) feedstock, they are now being used in the production of biofuels, biopharmaceuticals, etc. Moreover, the growing awareness about the benefits of biocatalysts and their environment sustainability has stimulated their demand in industries such as food and beverage, detergents, starch processing and textiles.
The report has segmented the market on the basis of type. Currently, hydrolases represent the largest biocatalyst type, accounting for the majority of the total market share. Other major types are oxidoreductases and transferases. The report has also segmented the market on the basis of the application including food and beverage, cleaning agents, biofuel production, agriculture and feed, biopharmaceuticals and others. On a regional basis, the report covers Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East and Africa.
