feculent
Full of dregs
Feculent means foul with impurities or waste matter—muddy, turbid, or containing sediment.
The word often describes water or other liquids contaminated with dregs or filth: feculent water pooled in the drainage ditch.
It can also apply figuratively to anything morally or aesthetically foul.
The word is formal and uncommon, appearing mainly in technical or literary contexts.
