The chemical used to dissolve a human body is Sodium Hydroxide which is also known as Caustic Soda or Lye. Sodium Hydroxide is an ingredient used in the manufacturing of soap. Maybe they are getting rid of the remains this way. Soap manufacturers can purchase large amounts of Sodium Hydroxide as it's a neccesary ingredient in making soap. The Regal Wet Cleaners a few shops down from Comet Ping Pong could also legitamely explain having a large amount of Sodium Hydroxide on hand as it is a main ingredient used by Wet Cleaning companies.

I hate to be morbid... but only the fat would be used for soap. But certainly, the whole body could be dissolved using lye.
