Abstract

Agricultural wastes or agro-industrial residues are generated by the food processing industries throughout the world. These industries discharge solid waste (biomass) or liquid effluent into the environment. These solid wastes and effluents directly or indirectly affect the environment and human health negatively. Most of these wastes are lignocellulosic biomass that are a major source of several valueadded bioproducts. Solid-state fermentation (SSF) is one of the fermentation methods used for the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into various consumable products ranging from digestible sugar to bio-ethanol. Bacteria or fungi, or yeast utilizes this biomass and converts it into useful products. The application of fermentation technology improves the circular economy of industrialists. In SSF, the selection of substrate is very pivotal for product formation and the substrate specificity varies based on the type of organism involved. Bacteria, fungi, and yeast use agro-industrial residues and require pretreatment for the development of products. The selection of suitable substrate, organisms and cultural conditions, all influence product yield. This chapter provides an overview of the production of edible mushrooms, enzymes, lignocellulolytic enzymes, xylanases, lipase, cellulase, fibrinolytic enzyme, single-cell protein, antibiotics, biofuel-butanol, and ethanol production.
