An infectious waste treatment system uses a chlorine dioxide based liquid disinfectant generated from combining precursors comprising sodium chlorite, acid, and bleach. The waste is ground into small pieces and soaked in the liquid disinfectant. The chlorine dioxide is generated by combining dilute aqueous precursors with a flow of the liquid disinfectant into a circulation pump. A preferred set of precursors comprises an approximately 25 percent aqueous sodium chlorite solution, an approximately 12 percent to approximately 50 percent citric acid solution, and an approximately 12 percent industrial bleach (sodium hypochlorite) solution such as Clorox(R) bleach. A continuous gas monitoring system measures the concentration of chlorine dioxide in the liquid disinfectant and commands the chlorine dioxide generator to generate chlorine dioxide when necessary.
