Enzymes are currently used in various industries, most commonly in
food, detergents, and pharmaceuticals production. Lipases are
hydrolytic enzymes that demonstrate great potential as an
alternative to conventional catalysts in a number of industrial
applications. A complete understanding of enzymes, and their
proteins structure and environmental behavior, can greatly aid in
the further development of industrial applications. Supercritical
Fluids Technology in Lipase Catalized Processes provides basic
information about enzymes, their sources, reaction kinetics, and
main industrial applications. The book focuses in lipases. their
main sources, structure, and features, with an emphasis on their
specificity and interfacial activity, and presents proven
techniques for isolating, extracting, and purifying. Comprised of
six compact chapters, this comprehensive guide introduces:
Immobilization techniques and immobilized lipases that allow
repeated use (which is essential from an economic point of view)
Different bioreactor configurations using immobilized lipases The
latest information on the available technologies in lipolytic
reactions The advantages of nonaqueous media in biochemical
synthesis over aqueous and solvent-free systems Material on the use
of lipases in nonaqueous media to overcome the drawbacks usually
encountered with the use of conventional chemical catalysts The use
of supercritical fluids (SCFs) as a green alternative reaction
medium Factors affecting the physical properties of lipases in this
medium and, hence, their activity and stability A case study using
supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) for biodiesel production
Novel, cutting-edge technology, using immobilized enzymes to reduce
the overall production cost Supercritical Fluids Technology in
Lipase Catalized Processes outlines the main industrial
applications of common enzymes and discusses relevant challenges
and innovations emerging in the field.
