I've found articles saying it can be done, so long as the compost is not used to grow food, and articles saying it's acidic, high in protein and harmful bacteria and smells awful. Can anyone offer some insight on how to do this properly or whether it's just a bad idea?

I have an anaerobic compost for smelly food and dead animals. It's a sealed garbage can with a giant hole in the bottom. I surround most of the can with the regular compost heap.

Very interesting, thanks.

There is a guy who uses this technique to make his own methane gas for a generator and the outside pile for hot water.
