:icon_thumright:,I would have to agree(at this point)that is COULD be a"carpet-ball",Seeing that alot of carbet balls are ceramic...Other materials were used...But i have at least 2 "carpet-balls which were used at each corner of carpet so ends would NOT curl up...Just my 2 cents woth...HH ALL !!! :read2:

It rolls around the bottom along with many others in a water treatment plant .
Here is a couple of mine , they keep the sludge broken up, they are discarded when they get to small.

That's an interesting thought. Never knew there were "sludge balls".

I used to work in ESP (evironmental services Protection) and we stirred the sludge with an arm, that had holes in it with a light venturi action, the top sludge would be brought up, dewatered and turned into what looked like turds. They were put into a drying oven, and the the boiler plant used it for fuel. Of course, it was all from the pulp and paper mills.
