Seriously, this is my main question also! What about heavy metal in the soup, diseases, implants etc?
the whole thing looks like an autoclave and it looks like it reaches 125 degrees celsius so it's basically one.
diseases are gone, solids are probably picked out of the broth when they put the bones in the blender.
I see, thank you very much for your input!
I hope this becomes a thing in Germany. If it is less energy consuming than burning, I would want it for my burial. The bone dust then goes to a "resting forest" (Ruhewald) with no grave, just buried in a recycling paper bag at the roots of a tree.
this natural process uses water, not fire, making it gentler on the body
Hrm, somehow I don't think that this is all that important
Basically they make human bone broth, and the family gets the bones back.
next headline will bei "Nestlé enters cremation business" and soylent green is real...
sorry, this is sarcasm if anyone needs the hint...
How is burial (if that they don't embalm or use a sealed casket) less environmentally friendly?
Dig a hole and toss them in. Keep the nitrogen cycle going properly.
maybe because cemetaries are a waste of real estate, but so are chateaux and mansions. also cremation could be an economical alternative comparing to burial.
Good ol’ UK. Can’t use my hosepipe to use the water I pay for to water my tomatoes I’m growing because they are now £250 per kg in the shops. However businesses can use whatever the fuck they want.
Don’t use your own water to help save the planet…….. Oh look, we’re now washing bones to help save the planet….
Nice rant, but you should read the article.
This has not much to do with water consumption, but it describes to chemically dissolve corpse flesh instead of burning it. The bones will remain and they have to grind them down.
"Water Cremation" just sounds a lot nicer to potential customers and might remind of a funeral at sea. Bringing grandpa to the "Flesh Dissolver" would be a more appropriate term but probably bad for business.
