Developed by Washington-based company Recompose, recomposition involves placing the body in a vessel with organic materials such as wood chips, straw, and alfalfa, where it is then allowed to decompose naturally over the course of several weeks. The process of recomposition is similar to composting in that it relies on microbial activity to break down the body into nutrient-rich soil. The resulting soil can then be used to nourish plants or trees, effectively returning the body to the earth in a way that promotes growth and sustainability. One of the main advantages of recomposition is its environmental friendliness.
