The use of whole-cell biocatalysts in microbial cell factories is of great interest to produce added-value compounds.Through large-scale here fermentative processes, which use secondary raw materials as substrates, it is possible to recycle and upgrade agro-industrial by-products.This review addresses the main fermentative processes and bioreactors
