What are the environmental people referring to when they discuss “primary and secondary” chambers?
Different industries use unique terminology and ours is no different. A primary chamber refers to the cremation chamber where the human remains and container are loaded for the cremation process. The cremation is performed using a temperature controlled burner and air jets which stimulate the cremation process. The secondary chamber is the same as the after chamber. This is where the gases from the cremation process, called products of combustion, are subjected to adequate temperature and turbulence for typically one (1) second or more in order to clean them before they can be exhausted into atmosphere.
