Why is a grease trap required?

Image
Grease Traps are plumbing devices that block and collect food particles and FOGs from entering the main sewer system. The wastewater that comes from the sink will be containing FOG. But if we allow this to flow into the main sewer system, it may cause a block in the flow of wastewater. Grease traps help in the smooth flow of water. How do grease traps work? In restaurants, when constant cooking happens, the amount of FOG in wastewater is high. The FOG is in liquid form when it is hot, but it solidifies when it is cooled and this may lead to blocks in the drain if we do not separate the FOG at the right time. If it’s clogged in the drain, regular drain cleaning also has to be done. So better we don’t leave this FOG into the sewer system. Any commercial kitchen must use grease traps in order to decrease the chance of clogged drains. Installing a grease trap is not enough. It should be regularly serviced so that the flow of wastewater is not blocked. The grease trap ensures that no grease...

You must filter off this oil before it enters the main sewer system. The government system recommends this and it’s a must to do in many countries. As the name suggests grease traps are traps for grease. The grease trap is also known as a grease interceptor. There are interior traps and exterior traps. The interior traps are placed in the kitchen area near the sink or dishwasher. External traps are placed outside the building. Wastewater will be a mix of fats, oil, and grease along with water.
