Organic solvents have been the focus of numerous restrictions and legislation recently because of their detrimental impact on the environment and toxicity to human health. In parallel, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as more resilient and eco-friendly solvents and have a wide range of physicochemical benefits associated with their affordability and durability. On the other hand, DESs have other major advantages such as low toxicity, high availability, low flammability, high recyclability, and low volatility from an environmental and technological standpoint, which is why DESs have become a viable substitute for conventional organic solvents over the past ten years. The number of structural combinations encompassed by DESs is tremendous; thus, it is possible to design an optimal DES for each specific enzymatic reaction system. A DES can be used as a solvent or co-solvent, an extractive reagent for an enzymatic product, or a solvent for enzymatic biomass pretreatment in (bio) catalytic processes. In this review, we have attempted to first provide a simple definition of DESs. Then, we have examined the classification of DESs, their preparation techniques, and their description.
