प्रश्न
In industries microbial enzymes are used over chemical enzymes.
उत्तर
Microbial enzymes are used instead of chemical enzymes in industries because:
- Corrosion is a common problem in chemical industries. Using anticorrosive instruments increases the production cost. However, while using microbial enzymes costly anti-corrosive instruments are not required.
- Microbial enzymes are active at low temperature, pH and pressure. Thus, they save energy.
- Enzymes carry out specific processes due to which unnecessary byproducts are not formed. Thus, expenses on purification are minimized.
- In microbial enzymatic reactions, elimination and decomposition of waste material is avoided and enzymes can be reused. Thus, microbial enzymes are eco-friendly.
