Biocatalysis has emerged as a rich field within Biotechnology, enabling the application of enzymes in a wide range of industries ranging from pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals to food and energy. This striking development of Biocatalysis is due to novel technologies such as bioinformatics, high-throughput screening (HTS), directed evolution, as well as other well-established techniques such as enzyme immobilization and protein engineering or medium engineering. Sustainable manufacturing is a major driver of Biocatalysis, which will provide many real challenges and opportunities for the future. In this article, some of the main methods in enzyme technology have been reviewed, as well as several biotechnological applications of enzymes in industry. Finally, a brief overview of the situation of Biocatalysis in both Spanish academia and industry has also been reported.
