Fungi, especially Aspergillus species, could have a significant role in tackling challenges of global sustainability because of their diverse industrial and biotechnological applications. The current work aims to explore the biotechnological and industrial potential of Aspergillus fumigatus in achieving sustainable development goals. This fungus has the capability to secrete valuable industrial enzymes, including cellulases, lipases, and proteases, promoting eco-friendly substitutes for chemical processes in different fields such as food, textiles, biofuels, and detergents. Moreover, A. fumigatus and its enzymes support bioremediation, waste management, and circular economy processes by breaking down environmental pollutants. Further, its nanotechnological applications strengthen its potential for sustainable healthcare applications. Notwithstanding its pathogenicity, A. fumigatus's biotechnological significance emphasizes its potential as a useful resource for environmentally friendly industrial operations. This review emphasizes the relevance of this fungal species and the need for more investigation to fully explore its uses while reducing health hazards.
真菌，尤其是曲霉菌种，由于其多样的工业和生物技术应用，在应对全球可持续发展挑战方面可能发挥重要作用。当前的工作旨在探索烟曲霉在实现可持续发展目标方面的生物技术和工业潜力。这种真菌能够分泌有价值的工业酶，包括纤维素酶、脂肪酶和蛋白酶，促进在食品、纺织、生物燃料和洗涤剂等不同领域中化学过程的环保替代方案。此外，烟曲霉及其酶通过分解环境污染物来支持生物修复、废物管理和循环经济过程。此外，其纳米技术应用增强了其在可持续医疗保健应用方面的潜力。尽管烟曲霉具有致病性，但其生物技术意义强调了它作为环境友好型工业运营有用资源的潜力。本综述强调了这种真菌物种的相关性，以及需要更多研究以充分探索其用途同时减少健康危害。
