Hazardous contaminants in the environment and their laccase-assisted degradation – A review

Abstract

In recent years, owing to the serious ecological risks and human health-related adverse effects, the wide occurrence of hazardous contaminants along with their potential to enter the environment have gained great public concerns. In this context, significant actions are urgently required to tackle the ignorance and inefficient monitoring/removal of emerging/(re)-emerging contaminants (ECs) in the environment from different routes of concerns, i.e., industrial waste, pharmaceutical, personal care products (PCPs), toxic effluents, etc. Laccases are multinuclear copper-containing oxidoreductases and can carry out one electron oxidation of a broad spectrum of environmentally related contaminants. In biotechnology, this group of versatile enzymes is known as a green catalyst/green tool with enormous potentialities to tackle ECs of high concern. In this review, we endeavored to present up-to-date literature concerning the potential use of immobilized laccases for the degradation and remediation of various types of environmental pollutants present in the environment. Both, pristine and immobilized, laccases have shown great capacity to oxidative degradation and mineralization of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDs) in batch treatment processes as well as in large-scale continuous reactors. These properties make laccase as particularly attractive biocatalysts in environmental remediation processes, and their use might be advantageous over the conventional treatments. This review summarizes the most significant recent advances in the use of laccases and their future perspectives in environmental biotechnology.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
