Anaerobic
Conditions that are free of molecular oxygen. In soils this is usually caused by excessive wetness. Compost: composting environment characterized by bacteria active in the absence of oxygen (anaerobes). In anaerobic composting, the microflora obtain oxygen from the waste; peak temperatures may reach 100 to 130_F; digestion requires more time, foul odors are created and pathogens may survive.

Anaerobic
Anaerobic is a technical word which literally means without air (where "air" is generally used to mean oxygen), as opposed to aerobic. In wastewater treatment the absence of oxygen is indicated as anoxic; and anaerobic is used to indicate the absence of any electron acceptor (nitrate, sulfate or oxygen). An anaerobic adhesive is a bonding agent that does not cure in the presence of air.
