FOG buildup turns Baltimore’s sewers into ‘Fatberg’

Cities

are constantly battling the FOG (fats,

oils, grease) buildup in their sewers.  Baltimore recently found a huge buildup that they now are calling “fatberg”.  The FOG was blocking up to 85% of the pipe in some areas.  According to DPW officials, the fatberg removal will cost about $60,000.   There are reports of a similar buildup in London’s sewer system that is taking weeks to breakdown.  You can read the full story here: http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/baltimore-city/bs-md-ci-fatberg-20170925-story.html
