    Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a system and method is provided for producing a safely disposable end product from waste matter containing undesirable materials, such as infectious, biohazardous, hazardous, or radioactive elements. The method comprises the steps of providing a highly basic solvent, immersing the waste matter containing the undesirable materials within the highly basic solvent, and heating the solvent. The waste matter containing the undesirable materials is allowed to remain within the solvent until digested, thereby forming a solution void of any infectious or biohazardous elements and/or containing a concentration of radioisotope below the maximum permissible concentration (MPC) for release to a sanitary sewer as defined in applicable federal regulations. The invention further provides a system for producing a safely disposable end product void of any infectious or biohazardous elements and/or containing only a concentration of radioisotope below the MPC for release to a sanitary sewer as defined in applicable federal regulations from waste matter containing such materials. The system comprises a tank or vessel capable of containing a highly basic solvent during a closed digestion reaction, heating means for heating the solvent within the vessel, filtering means, and means for removing the post-digestion aqueous solution and solid waste materials from within the vessel. The post-digestion product in both aqueous and solid form can then by disposed of by conventional means.

    Abstract: A method for safely treating and disposing of infectious biomedical waste and other hazardous materials is disclosed. The method involves alkaline hydrolysis of infectious agents contained in regulated medical waste or hazardous waste solutions. The infectious waste is immersed into a highly basic solvent (>130° C.,>2.79 atm) until the hydrolyzable matter is fully digested, thereby forming a sterile solution and sterile solid waste. The sterile solution and solid waste may then be disposed of through standard means, such as in a sanitary sewage system or local landfill facility. The method also provides for the treatment of lipid soluble hazardous material contained in the regulated medical waste.
