    Enzyme technology is an indispensable part of today's industrial processes and, hence, the global market for industrial enzymes continues to expand. The manufacturing of enzymes has become the cash cow of many businesses. However, the use of enzymes for industrial processes adds considerable cost to the final product. Further, several drawbacks associated with conventional enzymes have increased the need for alternatives with competitive advantages. Marine enzymes with habitat-related unique physicochemical characteristics seem ideal candidates and fish processing leftovers have been recognized as a cheap and promising source for unique marine enzymes. In this chapter, fish processing leftover-derived enzymes and their potential applications are discussed
