For you non-chemstry types, alkaline hydrolysis is also called base catylized hydrolysis, or making soap. The proteins turn into a water soluble gelatenous ooze, the fat hydrolyzes into a semisolid that can be further refined into a surfactant, with little remaining but dental enamel.

Any solution with a ph high enough to do the job would be a hazardous waste when done, unless it was neutralized.
