O2 consumption in differently stored wheat straw (SWS) and forestry residue (SFR) slurries during incubation at 50 °C for 24 h. a, b O2 saturation in SWS headspace and slurry. c, d O2 saturation in SFR headspace and slurry. The pH was adjusted to 5.3 before incubation. Storage conditions of the slurries before incubation: pH adjusted to 5.5 (SWS) and pH 5.9 (SFR), stored at room temperature under aerobic conditions (blue), and under N2 pressure (magenta), at room temperature under aerobic conditions (orange) and slurries washed with warm water after storage (cyan). Measurements of SFR stored at room temperature under aerobic conditions were not conducted due to the shortage of the material. Dashed line: 5% DM, continuous line 10% DM. Each data point is the average value of two to seven replicates (apart from the pH 5.9 SFR measurement which had no replicates), and error bars show 1 SD
