Cineration

/ˌsɪnəˈreɪʃən/ noun

Definition

The process of reducing something to ashes, especially through burning or cremation.

Etymology

From Latin 'cinerare' (to reduce to ashes), derived from 'cinis' (ash), plus the '-tion' suffix indicating a process or action.

Kelly Says

Cineration in chemistry labs is precise and controlled—scientists can determine what elements were in an object by analyzing the ashes left behind, essentially reading the chemical fingerprints of things completely burned away.
