How do the sarcophagi in the church prevent the smell of corpses from spreading out of the coffin?

They sprinkled the time with the corresponding powder and the corresponding medicine to mask the smell, so it was said that it would not be detected.

Because the decaying blood produced by the decay of the corpse can soak through the wood, the sarcophagus is usually chiseled in one stone as a whole, and the decaying blood produced by the decay of the corpse will not be soaked, and the cover plate on the sarcophagus is also tightly fitted with the sarcophagus as a whole, so the smell of the corpse will not escape.

The corpse decays and produces ammonia gas, which is combined with the smell of hydrogen sulfide.

The time was sprinkled with lime by the previous people, and it was also sprinkled with various gases to prevent the smell of corpses from spreading.

Make a dried corpse to prevent corruption, and then the sealing is also good.

Because it should be sprinkled with gases and tools to prevent the smell from spreading.

The rotting blood produced by the decay of the corpse will not be soaked, and the cover plate on the sarcophagus will also fit tightly with the sarcophagus as a whole, so the smell of the corpse will not escape.

We all know that the decomposition of the corpse is a process of microbial decomposition, ammonia, sulfur dioxide and water will be produced in the middle, and these smells are relatively unpleasant, in order to prevent the smell of the decay of the corpse placed in the church sarcophagus from diffuse, there are mainly two means to delay and avoid, one is to delay the decomposition of the corpse through technical means, and the other is to delay the release of the odor.

We all know that no matter how good the seal is, it can't be absolutely not overflowing, because there are gaps between the molecules, from a physical point of view, if the time is long enough, the gas can still overflow from the sarcophagus, there is no doubt about this, and delaying the decay of the corpse is an inhibition of the anaerobic environment, we all know that after the death of the organism, the first thing is to decompose from the blood, because after the oxygen here is exhausted, the anaerobic microorganisms inside will begin to move, in fact, we have this kind of microorganism in our living organisms, Once the body is hypoxic, the reason for the decay is that these anaerobic microorganisms begin to multiply, so some people say that after the death of organisms, they begin to enter the continuation of another life, which is what it means, the ultimate goal of these microorganisms is to decompose the organism into various elements in a free state, to achieve a real return to nature.

Microbial decomposition is also conditional, that is, temperature, humidity, weak light, if these two conditions are not suitable, the decomposition speed will be much slower, then by changing the surrounding environment of the corpse, this effect can be achieved, for example, placing a large amount of lime in the coffin can make the corpse quickly dehydrated, so that it is difficult for microorganisms to decompose, and there is also temperature, we know that the range of microbial requirements for temperature is relatively narrow, and the temperature in the church is relatively low, so this is also a reason for its slow decomposition, Of course, in the coffin, because it is fully enclosed, there will be no light entering.

By controlling temperature, humidity and low light, it can slow down its decomposition rate, that is, the rate of gas release is much lower, and the next step is how to ensure that it is slowly released from the coffin, which requires the use of the coffin material.

The coffin in the church is generally polished with a special stone as a whole, because it is a whole, not only does it come out without any gaps, but it is sealed at the interface of the coffin lid to create an environment that is almost isolated from the outside world, even if there is gas to come out, the amount is very small.

In fact, we often smell the smell from some old people, thinking that the old people do not pay attention to hygiene, in fact, it is not, due to the age, many capillaries of the human body are bad, so that these anaerobic microorganisms begin to appear in the local part of the body, they have begun to work, resulting in a more unpleasant smell in the human body, and in our daily life, due to excessive protein intake, if the gastrointestinal tract is not completely absorbed, it will also appear like this, decompose in the intestine, and then release it in the form of discard. That is, what we usually call ammonia and sulfur dioxide, as long as the amount is not particularly large, it generally does not have much effect.

The sarcophagus in the church will be treated with special treatment before the body is placed in, and it will have to go through a series of very tedious operations such as sulfur fumigation.

Stop, have these people really been to those churches......The truth is, it didn't stop at all...The disgusting smell of the old church is the smell of corpses...

The corpses in these sarcophagi are either dried or covered with a layer of mercury, so they don't stink.

European and American countries can hold a funeral in a church or not in a church according to the deceased's wishes during his lifetime (just as a wedding can be held in a church, and an atheist can also hold a wedding in **).

After the funeral, the body is buried in the cemetery, during which the body has not begun to decompose, and there is no smell of corpses (referring to Chinese funerals, it may take longer from death to burial), and then buried in the soil, even if there is a smell, it will not be smelled.

There are still many ancient churches in Europe, and although there have been cases of insufficient cemeteries in history, for some nameless tombs, they will indeed be merged. In short, people are mainly buried in the soil, so they naturally do not stink.

As for some rare cases,In the church, the immortal corpses of some saints are enshrined, some in sarcophagi and some in crystal coffins.

But the similarity is that these immortal bodies, which are used to witness God's miracles, are mostly processed, and are not really because of God's power that they do not rot into bones.

Usually these corpses will be made into dry corpses, or covered by ** (in other words, ** statues with a corpse core) and so on, and there are even many that simply use wax figures instead of the original corpses to fool people, so naturally the highly processed corpses enshrined in these churches will not emit corpse odor.

The funeral is followed by a burial in a cemetery, during which the body has not yet begun to decompose, and there is no smell of corpse.

Generally, it will be mummified, embalmed, and then the coffin will be sealed.

Sprinkle some lime around the sarcophagus or something.

This sarcophagus will put an antiseptic medicine, as long as he does not decay, so there is no corpse smell.

I think it's a special processing technique.

Put some medicine or spices to prevent the smell of corpses.

I guess a lot of spices were put in the coffin to prevent it.

There may be some spice obscuration.

I think it must be some special medicinal herbs.

Cover with ** or spices and carry out to hide some of the smell.

It is prevented by inhibiting the decay of the corpse.
