“…It is a field in which biotechnology can actively contribute when we consider the reduction of waste and the decreased use of solvents in chemical reactions. In engineering, the reduction of these environmental impacts is significant because the adoption of sustainable practices is increasingly demanded by companies, arising from the relationship between ESG (environmental, social, and governance) and its point of convergence with the environment [3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. This paper aims to present and discuss the advances obtained by the study of lipase Y. lipolytica and the provisions of the future of its industrial applications.…”

This paper aims to present the advances related to the biotechnological application of lipases Y. lipolytica, presenting their properties and more efficient ways to use them in different industrial applications. Waste treatment and bioremediation highlight recent studies and advances and the interest in large-scale applications in the food sector and biofuel production. The USA and China, two major world powers in industy, are of utmost importance in the search for the improvement in the development and properties of a controlled system for the large-scale production of a significant number of applications of lipase from Y. lipolytica.

Dye is an organic substance that seriously threatens the water environment. Using a solvothermal technique, MIL‐100(Fe) and M‐Fe have been synthesized to effectively remove methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange dyes from wastewater. The microstructures of the two products were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), thermogravimetric (TG), and X‐ray diffractometer (XPS) test. Optimized the optimal experimental parameters through batch processing experiments, when the pH was 5 and 2, the amount of adsorbent was 50 mg, the temperature was 25°C, and the dye concentration was 30 mg/L, MIL‐100(Fe) and M‐Fe had the highest removal rates of MB, at 98.95% and 94.11%, respectively. Adsorption process was well described by the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo‐second‐order kinetics. After three regeneration experiments, the removal rate was still high. The removal efficiencies of the two adsorbents for MB were similar. However, the regeneration performance of M‐Fe was better. Through the simulation of materials studio, the adsorption energy of the product and MB is −0.93 eV, which is favorable for adsorption. The results show that the two adsorbents can effectively remove MB from wastewater and have broad application prospects.
