Carbon capture technology can be set up in combination with biocatalysis to utilize the bound CO 2 as substrate in the Kolbe‐Schmitt like enzymatic reaction. The exemplary whole cell biotransformation of catechol to 2,3‐dihydroxybenzoic acid in a triethanolamine‐mediated multiphase system shows increased equilibrium conversion. Apart from the beneficial thermodynamics, the inherent fluid properties of triethanolamine is enabling easy application of CO 2 fine bubbles as highly efficient gassing method to minimize the CO 2 demand and CO 2 emissions.
