Subject: [USCC] Calorific values for compost substrates

Hi all,

Does anyone have, or know where to find, calorific values for typical compost substrates such as yard waste, biosolids, food waste, agricultural wastes etc? I am interested in calculating theoretical maximum temperature generation figures for a range of compost mixtures.

Thanks,
Steve
