abstract = "Wastewater treatment is one of the most analysed issue in theory and practice because
of its current and vast significance nowadays. Wide range of chemical, physical and
biochemical processes are developed for wastewater treatment. Although biochemical
processes are the most eco-friendly when compared to chemical and physical, they are
still not the leading type of technology in this field. In recent years, microreactors are
trending because of their particular characteristics that can be utilized in numerous
areas. Continuous flow, higher reaction yields, scale independant and high selectivity
are just a few of the beneficial characteristics of microreactors. Due to the micro
channels, turbulent flow regime is avoided. Furthermore, high surface-to-area ratios aid
in far greater and faster heat and mass transfer than in common reactors. Another asset
of microreactors is short diffusion pathways, that together with small reaction pathways
add to its favorable attributes. When it comes to enzymes, due to their small size and
mild reaction conditions requirements, they are ideal for working in microreactos.
Enzymes can be isolated from different sources, but isolation from plant waste material
is what makes them even more interesting. Because of the above mentioned
microreactor’s pros, several enzyme’s disadvantagious properties are overcome. In this
study, a review of the positive characteristic of enzyme microreators in wastwater
treatment will be discussed.",
