TL;DR: One fungus Bjerkandera adusta has been investigated in depth for its ability to simultaneously degrade and enrich the nutritional quality of highly coloured textile effluent-adsorbed barley husks through solid-state fermentation (SSF).
Abstract: A strict screening strategy for microorganism selection was followed employing a number of white-rot fungi for the bioremediation of textile effluent, which was generated from one Ireland-based American textile industry. Finally, one fungus Bjerkandera adusta has been investigated in depth for its ability to simultaneously degrade and enrich the nutritional quality of highly coloured textile effluent-adsorbed barley husks through solid-state fermentation (SSF). Certain important parameters such as media requirements, moisture content, protein/biomass production and enzyme activities were examined in detail. A previously optimised method of dye desorption was employed to measure the extent of dye remediation through effluent decolorisation achieved as a result of fungal activity in SSF. B. adusta was capable of decolourising a considerable concentration of the synthetic dye effluent (up to 53%) with a moisture content of 80–85%. Protein enrichment of the fermented mass was achieved to the extent of 229 g/kg dry weight initial substrate used. Lignin peroxidase and laccase were found to be the two main enzymes produced during SSF of the dye-adsorbed lignocellulosic waste residue.

TL;DR: Aspergillus niger cultures at high initial glucose concentration on Amberlite as inert support showed high concentration and productivity without inhibition related to the presence of metals at high concentrations, and citrus acid accumulation was clearly associated with both, glycerol production and to the age of the culture.
Abstract: Aspergillus niger cultures at high initial glucose concentration (up to 400 g/1) on Amberlite as inert support were carried out. Citric acid was accumulated in the support showing high concentration (94.54 g/l) and productivity (1.35 g/l h) without inhibition related to the presence of metals (Mn2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Cu2+, and Ca2+) at high concentrations. Citric acid accumulation was clearly associated with both, glycerol production and to the age of the culture. Glycerol and erythritol, the major osmoregulator metabolites, were also produced (8.16 and 24.57 g/l respectively) at 400 g/l of glucose.

TL;DR: A review of different types of bioreactors that have been used for various purposes and the recent process developments in solid-state fermentation can be found in this article, where the authors discuss the advantages over submerged fermentations and environmental concerns regarding the disposal of solid wastes.
Abstract: Solid-state fermentation has gained renewed attention, not only from researchers but also from industries, due to several advantages over submerged fermentations. This is partly because solid-state fermentation has lower energy requirements, higher yields, produces less wastewater with less risk of bacterial contamination, and partly because of environmental concerns regarding the disposal of solid wastes. This paper reviews different types of bioreactors that have been used for various purposes and the recent process developments in solid-state fermentation.
