Electric crematorium and green cremations

When a electric cremation furnace is used for a cremation. We can talk about a greener cremation. As it’s not much different than it is in a gas crematorium. Except that instead of gass providing the heat for the cremation chamber, it is heated by electric coils. An electric furnace can reach extreme temperature. And once the extreme temperature is reached, air is passed into the chamber. Which causes an almost instantaneous oxidation and whatever is in the chamber turns to white ash. Hinduism rituals say that a electric cremation is not good for the soul. But also this is not true as the electric coils will only be used to pre heat the cremation camber. After the camber is hot enough the electric coils won’t be used during the cremation. The control of heat will be with oxygen from the outside air.
