ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling a closed-loop processing system (100) including the steps of receiving and analyzing an element to be processed to identify the contents thereof. The method further includes the steps of processing and converting the element into a residue which is stabilized, to prevent physical interaction therewith, and then deposited in a permanent landfill storage facility (124). Finally, a plurality of parameters of the residue and the environment surrounding the closed-loop processing system (100) are monitored to provide a plurality of control signals. The control signals are utilized to control each stage of the processing system to ensure a negligible environment effect. Thus, the invention provides a method for controlling a processing system in a closed-loop automated manner with negligible environmental impact. In a preferred embodiment, the closed-loop automated system (100) for processing waste of the present invention receives and analyzes waste. The waste is thereafter incinerated or biodecontaminated for conversion into a residue or is chemically processed for reclamation. The residue is then stabilized and stored to prevent physical interaction therewith. Thereafter, a plurality of monitoring devices (154) are employed for automatically measuring and sensing parameters and controlling the closed-loop waste processing system (100).
