If it containes metals and corosives it is probably not a good thing 
enviromentally but I am not an expert. I don't think most suage 
treatment plants have the capability to seperate this stuff from the 
rest of the waist. So if the waist is then used agriculturally it could 
be going back into the food chain or getting into the rivers. Etc. Again 
I am speaking without knowledge.
