So the death stills are so efficient that all of the water gets extracted. So from a 180lb man you should get about 50L of water. (~110lbs)
All that is left is dehydrated organs, tissues and bone - various organic molecules.
You didn't think they just built all their technology from spice and worms did you? (jk I think they bury the organic remains. You probably wouldn't want to look at the body after either in any circumstances).
I mean, if it's being super efficient with all of the water, most of the body will have been gassed into methane and such, a little lipid slick here and there, and only the inorganic mineral contents will be visible. Surely their technology can handle a little rapid putrefaction. Why leave carbonyls intact if you can do a nucleophilic attack and knock off oxygen (as a hydroxyl, sure) to be buffered by a little acid into water?
...calm thy tits, gentlemen, I'm joking...
spoiler
because we don't use acid, that's barbaric. Lye is much more appropriate!Only 2% of the original body mass is left as 'dry' material afterwards. Much much efficient!
