10-tonne fatberg removed from west London sewer
A 10-tonne lump of wet wipes and fat has been removed from a sewer in Chelsea, west London.
The toxic lump of congealed fat and household waste – known as a fatberg – was 40 metres long and so heavy that it broke the 1940s-era sewer.
Repairing the damaged sewer is expected to cost Thames Water £400,000 and take more than two months, the company said.
