Fungi, including filamentous organisms such as yeasts, play essential roles in various processes such as nutrient exchange in ecosystems, the cultivation of mushrooms, and solid-state fermentation (SSF). SSF involves microbial growth on solid substrates without free water, leading to the production of enzymes, bioactive compounds, and biofuels. This fermentation method offers advantages like lower production costs, reduced waste disposal issues, and the efficient utilization of agricultural residues and fruit and vegetable by-products. Filamentous fungi excel in SSF due to their enzyme secretion capacity and ability to produce valuable compounds. The process is influenced by biological, physico-chemical, and environmental factors, requiring careful optimization for optimal results. Fruit and vegetable by-products are increasingly recognized as valuable substrates for SSF, offering rich sources of bioactive compounds and high nutritional value. The optimization of SSF processes, compatibility with various substrates, and potential for producing diverse value-added products make SSF a promising method for sustainable resource utilization and enhanced product development. Future research should focus on improving process efficiency, expanding the substrate range, enhancing product quality and yield, and integrating SSF with other technologies for enhanced production capabilities.
