The Russian gas crisis caused the bodies of the dead to remain on the ground in Germany

According to the report of the International Economy Group of Fars News Agency, citing Reuters, cremation institutions in Germany will probably face problems to continue their activities as the energy crisis in this country becomes more serious.

The decrease in Russian gas exports due to concerns about the complete cessation of receiving gas from this country has caused the number of units and institutions active in cremation in Germany, which is one of the common methods of burying the dead, to decrease drastically.

Sovand Joerek Sobolowski, the secretary of the German Cremation Association, says that due to the reduction in the flow of gas entering Germany, cremation units have turned off many of their furnaces, and they are trying to keep some furnaces on permanently to prevent them from cooling down and re-using gas to heat them. They keep, of course, in some of these units, the number of incoming feet is not enough for this model to work.

Sobolovsky says: if gas is rationed in Germany, these units should be prioritized for gas allocation; Because crematoria cannot continue to operate without gas. On the other hand, death cannot be closed.

Stephen Noeser, secretary of the German Funeral Association, says: Another solution is to reduce the furnace temperature from the current 850 degrees Celsius to 750 degrees, which can save 10 to 20 percent in gas consumption.

Cremation is the most common form of burial, and two-thirds of a million corpses are buried in Germany every year.
