Similarities Between Water Cremation 🌊 and Flame Cremation 🔥:

• Both types of cremation require about the same amount of time (2-3 hours).
• Similar to flame-based cremation, there is no DNA to link back to the person at the end of water cremation.
• The only solid remains are the bones, which are then pulverized and returned to the family as cremains.



Differences Between Water Cremation 🌊 and Flame Cremation 🔥:

• Water cremation uses one-seventh of the energy it takes for cremation with fire.
• Flame Cremation requires the heat of around 1800 degrees. Only about 300 degrees are necessary for water cremation.
• While flame cremation produces carbon dioxide equivalent to a 1,000-mile car ride, water cremation does not release any airborne toxins.
• Mercury vapors aren’t released during water cremation either.
• Plastic and metal objects like breast implants and artificial hips, aren’t destroyed during water cremation. They are separated out from the remaining bones.
