Using heat will soften the glue and release hazardous fumes.

I think...any asbestos itself won't be changed until particalized. That's what it was made for.
The asbestos wrap they used for pipe turned into clouds and was the known killer.
This stuff may have the hard-compacted type.
Still, a little water spray after heating will shrink that side of the surface and keep dust to a minimum.

Either that or just replace the subfloor.
