The chamber is then heated and the solution dissolves the soft tissues. The resulting mess is then dried and the bones and teeth pulverized.
The process uses 90% less energy than traditional cremation and emits no greenhouse gases.

That's quite interesting. I'll check into that. I wanted cremation, but at 10% of the energy use of flames, it's a no-brainer. Or, I could do it for free in the back yard, with a lime pit.
