Heat is the form of energy that is released from compost bins. Two temperature ranges that are micro-organism-specific obtain in aerobically decomposing compost bins. Mesophilic micro-organisms require temperature ranges of 50 to 115 degrees Fahrenheit (10 to 46.11 degrees Celsius) while thermophilic bacteria need ranges between 140 and 150 degrees Fahrenheit (60 to 71.11 degrees Celsius).

What happens in compost bins?

Aeration, decomposition, excretion, heating, moisturization, predation reproduction, and solubilization are happenings in compost bins. Aeration happens from openings in container bottoms, sides and tops or through a lack of confinement when composting occurs in heaps, piles and pits while moisturization occurs from rainfall on uncovered heaps, piles and pits and from supplemental watering of containers. Decomposition, excretion, heating, predation and reproduction result from the deliberate actions of macro- and micro-organisms that contribute to the production of dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter called compost or humus in soluble form for use by such soil food web members as plant roots and in soils.

Why does a compost pile give off heat energy?

A compost pile generates heat energy as a byproduct of the microbial activity that breaks down organic matter. The microbes in the pile consume organic material, releasing energy in the form of heat as they metabolize the nutrients. This process of decomposition is known as aerobic respiration.

How is heat generated within a compost heap?

Heat is generated in a compost heap through the microbial activity of bacteria, fungi, and other organisms breaking down organic matter. As these microorganisms consume organic materials, they release energy in the form of heat through their metabolic processes. The heat produced accelerates the decomposition process, helping to break down the organic matter into nutrient-rich compost.
