Basics Concerning Pet Cremation In Denver Colorado

By Miranda Sweeney


Cremation of dead human and animal bodies is an ancient activity that has been in existence for several years. The process involves burning, vaporization, and oxidation of bodies using high temperature flames to reduce them into basic chemical compounds. The compounds include gases and mineral fragments which have a white color. Pet cremation in Denver Colorado is used as an alternative to traditional burial by most citizens.

In Denver, cremation is a commercial business. People who need the services have to pay some fee to receive the service. Crematoriums also render other services like disposal and/or delivery of ashes, selling of urns, and collection of bodies. Clients pay according to the services they receive.

The actual process of cremation is done inside some kind of industrial furnace called a cremator. The furnace burns at temperatures over 980 degrees Celsius for complete and proper disintegration of the corpse to be achieved. Emptying and feeding of content into the cremator is done by an operator who stays nearby during the process. Some crematoriums operate as independent facilities even though they normally form part of funeral homes, chapels, or cemeteries in most cases.

Cremators are fuelled using different fuel sources including propane, natural gas, coal gas, and oil. Coal and coke were used in the 60s and are no longer used today. Adjustable control systems on modern cremators help in adjusting temperatures and other factors on the chamber to achieve excellent results. The controls monitor the interior and are able to shut the chamber down automatically when the combustion is complete.

The body weight determines how much time it takes for the process to complete. However, with the more improved modern cremators, the activity is fast only taking one hour to cremate 45 kilos of mass. To reduce fuel consumption and time taken, the number of corpses placed in the cremator is normally high. However, it is an offence to concurrently cremate human bodies in the same chamber. Offenders are charged heavily or may have their crematorium suspended or closed down.

Once the process goes to completion, preparations for disposing or delivering the resultant ashes to the owner are made. Local dumping sites are some of the disposal areas used. Pet owners may at times request to observe the process. This type of processing is called observed cremation. Many people consider it the best way of saying goodbye and letting their company go.

Requests to observe the activity must be made early enough probably at the time of requesting the service. This is necessary so as to allow the management of the crematorium to make arrangements for the process. Some facilities serve several clients in a single day and may not be able to disrupt their schedules if requests are not made early enough. Observed processing is mostly done in the mornings before other animals are processed in the furnace.

There are many benefits associated with this process. First, there is a lot of ease and convenience in the activity. The client only has to phone the crematorium and wait for everything to done. Compared to traditional burial, this process is also cheaper.
