Abstract

A process for cremation of animal remains includes the steps of inserting animal remains into a primary combustion chamber of a cremator and igniting a primary burner in the primary combustion chamber. An oxygen content of gas leaving the primary combustion chamber is measured. The oxygen content is represented by an oxygen level information signal. A temperature of the primary combustion chamber is also measured and the temperature measured is represented by a primary temperature signal. Volatilization of animal remains is determined dependent upon at least one of the oxygen level information signal, the primary temperature signal and the passage of a predetermined amount of time. Upon determining volatilization of the animal remains, a volumetric flow rate of gas or fuel fed into the primary burner is adjusted. Further, the quantity of air being introduced into the primary combustion chamber is adjusted dependent upon the oxygen level information signal.
