I looked into it. It contains household waste and industrial waste. Industrial waste contains heavy metals which can poison the ground water IF the ph of the ground is off.

The other thing that steered me away from using sludge is the conotation attached--that the ground is now contaminated so someone won't buy it for houses. If that is one of your exit strategies then again be careful. You see that suggestion of contamination in the responses to your first question and those visiting this board should know better if anyone does.
