Biocatalysis
Biocatalysis () is catalysis in living (biological) systems. In biocatalytic processes, natural catalysts, such as protein enzymes, perform chemical transformations on organic compounds. Both enzymes that have been more or less isolated and enzymes still residing inside living cells are employed for this task.
An EU-funded project paved the way for more sustainable production of fuels and petrochemical products that have hitherto stemmed from crude oils.
