Grape pomace is a sustainable source of bioactive phenolic compounds used in various industries. The recovery of phenolic compounds could be improved by biological pretreatment of grape pomace, as they are released from the lignocellulose structure by the activity of the enzymes produced. The influence of grape pomace pretreatment with <i>Rhizopus oryzae</i> under solid-state conditions (SSF) on the phenolic profile and chemical composition changes was studied. SSF was performed in laboratory jars and in a tray bioreactor for 15 days. Biological pretreatment of grape pomace resulted in an increase in the content of 11 individual phenolic compounds (from 1.1 to 2.5-fold). During SSF, changes in the chemical composition of the grape pomace were observed, including a decrease in ash, protein, and sugar content, and an increase in fat, cellulose, and lignin content. A positive correlation (<i>r</i> > 0.9) was observed between lignolytic enzymes and the hydrolytic enzyme’s xylanase and stilbene content. Finally, after 15 days of SSF, a weight loss of GP of 17.6% was observed. The results indicate that SSF under experimental conditions is a sustainable bioprocess for the recovery of phenolic compounds and contributes to the zero-waste concept by reducing waste.
