CREMATION FURNACES; CONSUMING WASTE PRODUCTS BY COMBUSTION

Introduced: September 1968

Description

F23G covers furnaces designed for cremation of human or animal remains, as well as combustion systems for disposing of waste materials or burning low-grade fuels. This subclass includes the structural design, heat management, emission control, and operational features of crematory equipment and waste-to-energy combustion installations. Technologies addressing ash handling, temperature regulation, and pollution mitigation in such facilities fall within this scope, whereas general industrial furnaces for standard fuel combustion are classified elsewhere under F23.
