日益严重的环境污染和自然资源稀缺的挑战需要创新的解决方案，以确保可持续的未来。最近在合成生物学和蛋白质工程方面的突破为开发新型工程生物材料提供了有前途的平台技术，以实现环境可持续性的有益应用。特别是，生物催化和生物吸附作为环境补救和从废物中回收资源的可持续方法正受到越来越多的关注。本文综述了工程生物催化和生物吸附材料的最新进展，这些材料可以降解新出现的持久性有机污染物，去除有害金属污染物，并回收增值金属。最后讨论了未来研究的机遇和挑战。
The challenges of increasing environmental contamination and scarcity of natural resources require innovative solutions to ensure a sustainable future. Recent breakthroughs in synthetic biology and protein engineering provide promising platform technologies to develop novel engineered biological materials for beneficial applications towards environmental sustainability. In particular, biocatalysis and biosorption are receiving increasing attention as sustainable approaches for environmental remediation and resource recovery from wastes. This review focuses on up-to-date advances in engineering biocatalytic and biosorptive materials that can degrade persistent organic contaminants of emerging concern, remove hazardous metal pollutants, and recover value-added metals. Opportunities and challenges for future research are also discussed.
