The efficiency of biofuel production has been significantly enhanced through enzymatic & catalytic processing in biofuels. Enzymes such as cellulases and lipases facilitate biomass breakdown and biodiesel synthesis, reducing the need for harsh chemical treatments. Meanwhile, catalytic processes, including hydrodeoxygenation and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, play a vital role in upgrading bio-oils into transportation fuels. Advances in enzyme engineering are improving stability and activity, while novel catalysts based on nanomaterials and metal oxides are increasing reaction efficiencies. Integrating enzymatic and catalytic methods enables more sustainable refining processes with higher yields and lower emissions. With the growing shift toward renewable energy, refining these bioconversion strategies is critical for the large-scale adoption of biofuels.
