What is the process of aquamation?
The process, also known as "alkaline hydrolysis", consists of cremation by water rather than fire. ... The body of the deceased is immersed for three to four hours in a mixture of water and strong alkali-like potassium hydroxide in a pressurised metal cylinder and heated to around 150 degrees Celsius.
