For a bipartite state with equal local dimension d, we prove that one can obtain work gain under Landauer's erasure process on one party in identically and independently distributed (iid) limit when the corresponding fully entangled fraction is larger than 1/d. By processing a given state to the maximally mixed state, we give an approximation for the largest extractable work with an error in the energy scale, which becomes negligible in the large system limit. As a step to link quantum thermodynamics and quantum nonlocality, we also provide a simple picture to approximate the optimal work extraction and suggest a potential thermodynamic interpretation of fully entangled fraction for isotropic states.
