Abstract Herring press‐cake was dried under both laboratory and commercial conditions and effluent air from the drier passed through acid or permanganate solutions. Production of volatile base per unit of water evaporated varied with the drying rate, but production of total volatile reducing substances, probably a truer index of smell production, was apparently independent of rate and method of drying.
