plime.com : Island Uses Poop Plug to Fill a Volcano

The waste would be dumped on a side of the volcanic island that had been extensively quarried in the past 50 years. The island's original volcanic cone formation could also be rebuilt using the biosolids. picked by gnikgnok 1 year ago

so the "extinct" volcano becomes a "stinked" volcano instead?

biosolids - cleaned, treated and dried human waste

So - by then it's like ... dust? Or what?

Rebuilding an "original volcanic cone" sounds like a dumb idea though.

However, on second thoughts, imagine how much biowaste you could get rid of if you rebuilt a volcano like, say, Mount St.Helens! And you could presumably build it anywhere...

Or... they could dump the biosolids deep in an ocean trench, which would mean the stuff may be pulled into a subduction zone along with the subducted oceanic crust, delivering new hydrocarbons on land for future generations!

(Sorry, I couldn't resist the temptation to go from the sublime to the ridiculous...)
