"Shitting bricks" has long been a common slang phrase meaning very nervous or frightened, but now it seems, "shitting bricks" takes on a more literal meaning.
Although it has been known for a long while how to use some human waste in the manufacture of bricks, but until now, only on a small scale.
At Beckton water treatment works in London, the largest sewage treatment works in Europe, they are using the separated solids, which they burn to create ash which then goes off to a brick company who use the ash to create an aggregate to go into brickmaking. It would normally go to landfill.
The heat generated from the burning process is also used to power turbines and create the electricity to run the plant. The liquid waste is further processed before being released into the river.
More environmentally friendly recycling and another step towards a cleaner and healthier planet.
Anyone for a vindaloo? I feel the need to help this initiative along!
(Obviously I changed the original BBC headline slightly!!)
