Compost Bin Spontaneous Combustion at Mary Toby blog

Compost Bin Spontaneous Combustion. Sc is defined as the combustion of material in the absence of “forced ignition,” or an external source of spark or flame (buggeln & rynk, 2002). In part ii, we look at the conditions that can lead to a spontaneous combustion (sc) fire — and then strategies for extinguishing them if they occur. It is still safe for composting. These fire cases are not common even in the case of overheated piles. This usually happens in commercial compost heaps that are not being managed properly, but it is still worth being aware of the danger and how to minimize it. If you have sufficient moisture in a pile, it doesn’t matter how hot it gets; Extreme temperatures in composting may result in spontaneous combustion. Part i of this series discussed the biology, chemistry and chain reactions that underlie the process of spontaneous combustion. The phenomenon of compost heaps catching fire is called spontaneous combustion, and it can lead to smoldering heaps which, under the right conditions, can burst into full flame. It is not uncommon for a compost or mulch fire to burn for several days.
