Soluções para a destinação ambientalmente correta do necrochorume

All living beings tend to go through all the phases of the life cycle, death, however, is one of the most painful and difficult moments that friends and family go through due to the loss of an esteemed person. The cemeteries, although dedicated to the memory of those who left, are potentially polluting sources of the environment, mainly the soil and groundwater, putting the health of communities at risk due to the by-product of the decomposition of bodies, the necrochorume. The concern with this liquid is due to the heavy load of nutrients and pathogens, which leak from the coffins contaminate the soil and can contaminate groundwater, in addition to spreading various diseases such as hepatitis “A”, typhoid, paratyphoid, polio, scarlet fever, gangrene and viruses. This work has as main objective to present and disseminate information on the subject, demonstrating the most viable conditions for the control, detention or treatment of the necrochorume, since it can negatively impact the diverse ecosystems involved, thus enabling a more critical view, both of the population in general, as for public and private entities that have influence on the subject, aiming at the well-being of communities and the environment.
