Plastics are everywhere in our modern way of living, and their production keeps increasing every year, causing major environmental concerns. Nowadays, the end-of-life management involves accumulation landfills, incineration, recycling to a lower extent. This ecological threat environment is inspiring alternative bio-based solutions for plastic waste treatment toward circular economy. Over past decade, considerable efforts have been made degrade commodity plastics using biocatalytic approaches. Here, we provide comprehensive review on recent advances enzyme-based biocatalysis design related processes recycle or upcycle plastics, including polyesters, polyamides, polyurethanes, polyolefins. We also discuss scope limitations, challenges, opportunities this field research. An important message from that polymer-assimilating enzymes very likely part solution reaching
