The bodies of the dead will turn into compost Bashny.Net

Kiev may be the first place on the planet where bodies of the dead people will be turned into compost. The new method is called cryogenic cremation burial.

According to the method proposed by scientists Ukrainian, instead of the traditional combustion body is frozen at low temperatures, and ultrasonication break into a fine powder. The method is 5-6 times cheaper than a conventional cremation and more environmentally friendly. First of all - because of the shortage of places in the cemeteries, reports TSN.

The coffin with the body of the deceased frozen in liquid nitrogen at -196 ° C. The corpse becomes brittle as glass. After ultrasonic shock body disintegrates into a fine powder. Processed mass is dried to obtain 15-20 kg of mineral salts and organic substances. The mixture was put in a potato or corn urn and buried in the ground.

For half a year the remains of the deceased is converted into compost. On this tomb, instead of a cross, offer flowers or plant a tree.

Ukrainian developers cryogenic cremation estimated that the conversion of body powder is 6-7 times cheaper than incineration, as the gas will always be more expensive than nitrogen.

Moreover, the current discharged into air crematory hazardous compounds, among them - the evaporation of mercury and dioxins.

8 years ago Kiev scientists have conducted successful experiments on animals. In 2004, the city council resolved to introduce a new method of cremation in the capital, but the money for the project has not allocated. For a start it should be 800 thousand hryvnia.

Meanwhile, the Swedes seized the initiative, and this year the local crematorium repurpose the so-called promatory.
