The word is derived from the enzyme name

The long history of biotechnology has its roots in the brewers of Babylon and ancient Egypt. As history progressed, the process of alcohol production became a standard industry that nations developed. This fermentation process is known as zymotechnology, and it was eventually applied to alternative industries outside the realm of beer and wine. (Bud) By the year 1900, the zymotechnology processes had progressed to include a wide variety of applications including leather curing and citric acid production. (Bud) These zymotechnical methods constitute a bridge between the biotechnology's traditional heritage and its modern associations
