Services of turning ashes into diamonds: Solution for ‘green’ burial

If analyzed to the atom, the human body consists of four elements: oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon. With today’s technology, only carbon is needed to make artificial diamonds.

Artificial diamond planting technology allows the ashes to turn into diamonds. Diamonds The condition for carbon smelting into artificial diamond is an environment of 1.5 million pounds / inch2 pressure and 1,500 degrees Celsius. Since 1954, General Electric Corporation (USA) has successfully installed diamond compression chambers. artificial. Starting in the 1980s, artificial diamond jewelry appeared on the market. In recent years, thanks to Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), an innovative artificial diamond product comparable to that of a natural diamond has been created. In the US, some cremation companies incorporate artificial diamond smelting technology. They introduce a service that turns the ashes of the dead into diamonds. Diamonds are artificial diamonds forged in a compression chamber with cremated ashes. After cremating the dead body, the crematorium took the ashes to extract carbon. They put this carbon into the diamond implantation chamber, refining the gemstone. Polygonal and polymorphic Diamonds meet all styles and colors. From the ecological perspective, turning the dead body into diamonds is a solution of “green” burial. Because, it contributes to CO2 reduction. “Carbon from the deceased’s body only meets 10% of the amount
carbon needed, ”said Adelle Archer – co-founder and CEO of Eterneva, a cremation company based in Texas. The crematorium needs to bring the remaining 90% in from the outside. CO2 is one of the richest sources of carbon. Modern science has also succeeded in separating carbon from this exhaust. Observing the diamond smelting process shows that carbon ashes play a role as grains of sand in the scallops body. It continuously absorbs the added carbon, eventually forming a gemstone, exactly the same way a pearl is born. The crematorium also provides a color selection service for the diamond. Regardless of what color is required by a deceased relative, they can do so by adding the corresponding element, such as nitrogen (giving a yellow diamond), boron (giving a blue diamond), etc. After the color, they allow their relatives to lose the choice of a diamond shape, design a memorial jewelry to store or wear on the body. Diamonds have the same value as artificial diamonds. Currently, the price of artificial diamonds is about 3,000 USD / carat (about 70 million VND). The future of burial? Diamond jewelry to ease the pain of losing a relative. Diamonds act as the embodiment of the deceased. “It comforts people who stay behind, ease pain and lift their spirits by thinking, the deceased is still with us,” Archer said. In early 2021, ecologist Tessie Offner (Florida) suddenly lost her father. In the midst of a pandemic, she was forced to choose a cremation for him. As soon as he learned that the crematorium had a service to turn the ashes into diamonds, Offner immediately found out. She is known that the diamond training time from ashes can last from 3 weeks to 2 months (depending on the color choice). During this time, Offner is authorized to monitor every step of the process. She also has more time to collect money and pay bills. As an ecologist, Offner appreciated the “diamond burial” solution. She is also satisfied with the lightness, mobility, and toughness of the diamond. However, not everyone agrees with Offner. Professor Tim Cupery (Fresno) said that he does not have the habit of sticking with things. Although recently, Cupery’s wife accidentally dropped her heirloom ring, but he did not blame or be upset. Cupery had no thought of turning the ashes of his relatives into diamonds, keeping them with him. Dancer Barbara McAlister (Texas) does not like the crematorium to bring in too much carbon from the outside. She feels that only 10% of a human diamond is a corpse that does not function as a substitute. “If it could be 50 percent or more, I would think,” McAlister said. Besides, the crematorium also does not limit the number of diamonds. Based on the available carbon source, they meet any quantity requirement. Many people are concerned that this is just a disguised artificial diamond trade. Although not popular, diamonds ashes are expected to become a green and aesthetic burial. Cremators in the US are very transparent in this practice. They publish detailed price lists, allowing funerals to choose services with financial conditions.
