Waste disposal system (10) is provided comprising first combustion chamber (40) for incinerating waste material to produce ash and exhaust containing gases and particulate matter. Waste disposal system (10) also has includes second combustion chamber (60) for firing the exhaust containing gases and particulate matter. The waste disposal system of the present invention also includes a plurality of subsystems working in cooperation with first (40) and second (60) combustion chambers, and control system (220) to control the plurality of subsystems to ensure the desired level of incineration of the waste in the first and second combustion chambers. Control system (220) includes a plurality of sensors to measure conditions throughout waste disposal system (10), and controller (221) to continuously monitor the measured conditions and to compare each of the measured conditions to a predetermined performance range. Controller (221) is also able to determine and implement corrective action necessary to modify the performance of each subsystem so as to operate waste disposal system (10) in a predetermined performance level. Control system (10) is programmable to allow for changing the performance parameters of waste disposal system (10). Control system (220) is accessible from locations remote from the system through multiple communication mediums (390).
