High-Efficiency Human Body Cremators for Crematoriums

The cremation process is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional burial. It’s important to understand the process and its benefits before deciding whether or not to choose it for yourself or your loved ones.

Human body cremation is a process that reduces the remains of a deceased person to ashes by exposing them to extreme temperatures. This is done in a cremation chamber, also called a retort, which is a large industrial furnace. Once the corpse has been placed inside of a container, which can be anything from a casket to a cardboard box, it is put into the retort and exposed to extremely high temperatures.

During the cremation process, the primary and secondary chambers are heated to a very high temperature. The heat vaporizes the water content in the body, which helps to burn off the organic portion of the body. This largely eliminates any ordors associated with the process, as well as any lingering traces of metal from surgically implanted devices . A secondary chamber exists in the retort, which is filled with additional burners and a special media that helps to oxidize the remaining inorganic components of the body.

Once the body is reduced to ashes, it is removed from the retort and placed in an urn for the loved ones. Generally, the urn is returned to the family within 7 days following the cremation. Unlike a traditional funeral service, which can take weeks to organize, cremation allows for flexible planning — particularly if the deceased’s family lives across the country or world.

While regulations vary by state, most crematories must officially receive permission from the next of kin or heirs before proceeding with the cremation process. Typically, this involves filling out paperwork that authorizes the cremation and indicates which type of container to use. It may also include details about who will be responsible for picking up the remains.

The cost of cremation is less than a traditional funeral, but it’s still not cheap. One way to help pay for these expenses is with final expense life insurance, which is a type of policy that’s designed specifically to cover end-of-life costs, such as funeral and cremation services.
