Utilizing human cremation energy for industries is considered "unethical."

The board of directors in Redditch, England proposed the idea of ​​recycle energy from a dead-burning engine to heat Abbey pool water at the Central Stadium. Because by chance, this pool is located not far from the crematorium.

This idea was born by the energy-saving and environmentally friendly movement that is flourishing across the UK. Using thermal energy from a corpse combustion engine will also save energy for £ 14,500 or more than VND 400 million per year for this pool.

For a long time, the cremation of the dead also released heat energy into the atmosphere to 800 degrees Celsius. " It would be good if this energy was used to heat the pool water rather than evaporate indiscriminately and cause pollution. Air pollution , "one of the council members, Mr. Carole Gandy, told the Telegraph.

Although the purpose of this idea is positive, it has caused a wave of public opposition. Utilizing human cremation energy for industries is considered unethical. Moreover, in reality, most people will feel horrified when swimming in such lakes.

" I don't know how people can be comfortable swimming here, when the pool water is warmed up by their bodies. I think this is a bit weird and scary ," said the Chief. Thomas Brothers funeral, Simon Thomas said.

The idea of ​​energy recycling at the crematorium was presented by some experts in East Sussex, England at the end of 2009. At that time, they offered to use dead cremation to get the energy supplied. electricity.

Renewable energy at the crematorium was also initiated by officials in Taipei City, Taiwan. They plan to use energy from cremation machines to supply cooling or air conditioning. However, that plan was strongly opposed by the public.

' I was very impressed with this creative idea, but how to do with families whose families died. It was horrible to enjoy the cold air of the air conditioner created from the heat of cremation of the human body , 'said Chuang Ruei- hsiung, a member of the local council.
