Einäscherungsprozess

Einäscherungsprozess refers to the process of cremation, where a deceased person's body is reduced to bone fragments and ashes through the application of high temperatures. This ancient practice has seen a resurgence in popularity in many cultures. The process typically takes place in a specialized facility called a crematorium. The body is placed in a combustible container, often made of wood or particleboard, and then introduced into a cremation chamber. Temperatures within the chamber can reach between 700 and 1000 degrees Celsius (1300 to 1800 degrees Fahrenheit). The intense heat causes the body's organic materials to combust and vaporize. Specialized equipment is used to filter emissions, ensuring that environmental regulations are met. Following the cremation, the remaining bone fragments are cooled and then processed using a specialized mill or pulverizer to create a uniform granular consistency, commonly referred to as cremated remains or ashes. These ashes are then typically placed in an urn or other container for disposition according to the wishes of the deceased or their family. The entire process, from placement in the chamber to the return of ashes, can take several hours.
