Method for obtaining a solid product comprising cremated ashes and a wax in a vessel, a product obtained by means of the method and a case containing said product
The present invention reveals a method for obtaining a solid product comprising the cremated ashes of a human being or animal, inside a vessel, comprising the following steps: separating the ashes produced as a result of cremating a body, determining the ashes produced by the body itself and the ashes produced from other elements present during cremation; grinding the ashes produced from the separated human ashes; introducing the ashes and a wax composition into a vessel and closing the vessel with a lid; (iv) heating the vessel, subjecting it to centrifugation and cooling the vessel. It likewise discloses a solid product comprising cremated human or animal ashes inside a vessel, obtained as a result of the method and a case containing said solid product.
1. The method for obtaining a solid product with cremated ashes, inside a vessel comprising the following steps:
(i) separating the ashes produced as a result of cremating a deceased human body into a) the ashes produced by the deceased body itself and b) the ashes produced by other elements present during cremation;
(ii) grinding the ashes produced by the human body, separated in step (i);
(iii) introducing the ground ashes and a composition comprising at least one wax into the vessel and closing the vessel with a lid;
(iv) heating and subjecting the vessel to centrifugation; and
(v) cooling the vessel.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein step (i) of separating the ashes is carried out with a sieve, with a mesh size of 0.2 mm×0.2 mm.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the ashes produced by the human body are ground by mechanical means, until the initial volume of ashes is reduced by 62-64%.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of wax composition introduced into the vessel is 15% or more and the remainder up to 100% constitutes the ground ashes.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the wax composition comprises carnauba wax.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the wax composition comprises one or more additives.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein in step (iv), the vessel is heated to a temperature of between 60° C. and 120° C.
8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising engraving the vessel.
9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the engraving is made by means of a laser.
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the vessel comprises identification means, for identifying the deceased body.
11. The solid product according to claim 1 , wherein the solid product is formed inside the vessel.
12. The solid product according to claim 11 , which has an internal volume of 1597 cm 3 and external dimensions of 316 mm×75 mm×75 mm.
13. The solid product according to claim 11 , presenting identification means on the vessel.
14. The solid product according to claim 13 , wherein the vessel has been engraved.
15. The solid product according to claim 11 wherein a case contains the solid product.
16. The solid product according to claim 15 , wherein the case is manufactured from a compound acrylate polymeric material and natural minerals.
17. The solid product according to claim 15 , wherein the case has external dimensions of 330 mm×93 mm×93 mm.
