Abstract

A furnace for use as a cremator of human remains comprises a first chamber (5) in which a body may be burnt and a second chamber (3A, 10A) in which waste gases from the burning of the body are mixed with the air and destroyed by burning, leaving relatively clean air to be discharged from the second chamber via a flue (7). The first and second chambers are provided with heaters (2), preferably electric heating elements. A fan (7A) is preferably provided in the flue which forces gas out of the flue and also creates a pressure differential through the furnace. The injection of the air into the first chamber preferably includes forcing air directly into the body in order to expedite combustion. Various sensors (11) are preferably provided in the chambers of the furnace in order to provide data to a computer which controls the operation of the furnace in response to the data allowing rapid clean and efficient operation. A small portable furnace suitable for cremating small bodies, and a method of operating a furnace are also provided.
