Gaseous emissions and the biological turnover of organic household wastes were studied under controlled conditions in a compost reactor (553C, moisture content 65% w/w, O concentration 16% in compost o!-gas). During the "rst experiments, the temperature was increased to 553C within 6 h using externa
