Energy efficient cremation

Energy efficient cremation

A energy efficient cremation is an innovation within the cremation industry. Energy efficiency is for a crematorium the major business factor, one to acknowledge financial wise. We know that the  CO2 footprint of a normal crematorium is large. These days crematoria can reduce emissions with a high tech cremation filter system. This cremation filter installation will reduce all emissions to nearly zero. Far below the stated cremation rules and regulations. There are different types of fuels like LPG, Bio Diesel that can be used to perform a flame-based cremation. The most efficient cremation furnace is the best to have in your local crematorium.

For most of us, options for true green cremation are still relatively limited. Never the less, cremation is generally considered to be less damaging to the environment than traditional in-ground burial. Cremation doesn’t require the vast acreage of land needed for cemeteries and doesn’t leave behind some 800,000 gallons of formaldehyde each year. With in-ground burial there is also the problem of huge amounts of unrecycled metals, concrete, and wood left in the ground.

But cremation is far from perfect. Its facilities consume large amounts of energy and release greenhouse gases, mercury, and other particulate matter into the atmosphere. State-of-the-art cremation furnaces have come a long way in reducing emissions, but they still burn natural gas which means the release of potentially harmful carbon dioxide and other gases.

New technologies for filtering and metal abatement continue to be put into service along with improvements in energy efficiency. Nevertheless, critics argue that the environmental impact of cremation is still much too severe. But these days the technology and energy efficiency is a major issue for crematoria. The technology of today has a great impact on a green environmental friendly cremation. As more and more crematoria are using a cremation filter system the air that comes out of the chimney is for 99,9% clean air. And as energy storage is the newest innovation for crematoria, critics can’t say anything.
