Question

Give scientific reason.

Microbial enzymes are eco-friendly.

Answer 1

1. 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.
2. Microbial enzymes are active at low temperature, pH and pressure. Thus, they save energy.
3. Enzymes carry out specific processes due to which unnecessary byproducts are not formed. Thus, expenses on purification are minimized.
4. In microbial enzymatic reactions, elimination and decomposition of waste material is avoided and enzymes can be reused. Thus, microbial enzymes are eco-friendly.
