Abstract
Today, enzymes have become an integral part of the textile processing. With the increasing awareness of environmental pollution and the extensive consideration of mankind health, chemical processes used in textile industries are being replaced by enzymatic processes. Usages of enzymes in textile industry will be the best possible alternative of chemicals used in textile industry. Enzymes like amylase, cellulase, catalase, protease, pectinase, laccase, and lipase are widely used in textile manufacturing and processing industries. Use of enzymatic treatments in textile industries is very promising approach as they are eco-friendly, produce high-quality products, and lead to the reduction of energy, water, and time. It is observed that enzymes can replace harsh chemicals, catalyze reaction and operate under mild conditions. These are biodegradable, safe to use and easy to control. In this review environment-friendly uses of various enzymes in different textile processing steps have been discussed.
