Explained in plain English
Crematoriums use high-temperature furnaces, and the combustion process produces gases and particles that need to be filtered before being released into the atmosphere. Gas cleaning systems, like the one at Teesside Crematorium, ensure these emissions meet environmental standards and prevent pollution. A failure could halt operations, causing significant distress for families.
