Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel.
[3]Lipases catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into glycerol and free fatty acids.
[4] Aspergillus oryzae lipase might be used in the production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil.
[5] It is used in the acetylation of cellulose and ochratoxin A degradation, and asymmetric organic synthesis.

Aspergillus oryzae is an industrial enzyme that has various uses in food, detergent, and pharmaceutical industries.
[5][1] It is useful in immobilization studies for 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmitoylglycerol (OPO) synthesis.
